An exciting new look at Jesus the man. I like Barton’s radical take.

Barton was one of the giants of the fledgling advertising industry when he wrote this portrait of Jesus to counteract what he experienced as a sentimentalized distortion of the presentation in the four Gospels. His take on Jesus is well-summarized by setting a quotation from the Gospel of Luke at the beginning of the book: "Wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?" The result can be imagined by the chapter titles: The Executive; The Outdoor Man; The Sociable Man; His Method; His Advertisements; The Founder of Modern Business; and The Master.

Some readers may conclude, as I did, that Barton's Jesus is a much a distortion as the Sunday School picture he reacts to, nevertheless, an interesting counter-balance.

Easy to use, well-written. A good bargain, too.
