Review of "Jesus: A Theography" by Leonard Sweet and Frank ViolaThis book above any other, including the Bible should be read by every follower of Jesus Christ. It is the one book that can help every gathering of brothers and sisters around this globe see how the Bible is to be read and understood. Too often people, Christian or otherwise will take the Bible and read it like any other book without understanding the unique way God meant for it to be read. Leonard and Frank remind us "that all the Scriptures are held together by a single narrative: the story of Jesus Christ."What Leonard and Frank do is none other than what Jesus said to the Jewish leaders: "You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you possess eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life" (John 5:39-40, TNIV). And later to His disciples in Luke: "He said to them, `This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.' Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures." (Luke 24:44-45, TNIV).Throughout church history brothers and sisters have often divided themselves over various interpretations of the Bible, because of using a wrong hermeneutic. Thankfully there have always been remnants of God's people who "got it" throughout church history. Today is another one of those days in church history. Now in this unique book all of God's people can see the unique way the Bible was meant to be read, not just a few. Leonard and Frank want believers to see that "the Bible contains its own hermeneutic" by which we understand the Scriptures: "Jesus Himself was the common source...Jesus is the interpretative key of the Bible...everything in the Bible points to Jesus - either His person, His work, or His character...He is the Canon within the canon."As Leonard and Frank say: "In a word, Jesus is the thread that holds all Scripture together. He is the prism that breaks forth its multifaceted colors. He is the lens that puts all of it into focus, the switch that sheds light on its dimly lit quarters, and the key that unlocks its meaning and richness."The authors also help inform the brothers and sisters when reading the Bible that history and composition matter. "The Bible didn't emerge out of a vacuum. It is historical but also metaphorical and narrative story of truth written within history." They state that "biblical logic defies logic. The Bible was written in a circle" because they were written at a time when the spoken word was written in what is called "ring composition." The connections in the Bible are done "not sequentially but synoptically" because it is a "story-circle" not a "story-line." As such reading the Bible must take into consideration the literary constructions of "(1) parallelism, (2) chiasmus, and (3) latch" which the authors describe in the book and as they relate it to reading the Bible in their many examples throughout the chapters of "Jesus: A Theography." Too often the Bible is read like a novel, quickly, focusing on key parts, and then once done put it on the shelf. Or it is read like a `self-help' book and we read only those parts we can `apply' to make our lives `better.' Because the Bible was written in "ring composition" it "forces one to slow down and pay attention to the details while never losing sight of the whole."It has been said by many that the "Introduction: The Jesus Story" from Leonard and Frank's book is worth the price of the book. I would heartily agree! In fact this review is a review of the introduction because of this one section's importance. In the rest of the book the authors pick up the Bible with the reader and together peer into Christ as they look afresh into the First and Second Testaments, the terms the authors use for the Old and New Testament. The rest of "Jesus: A Theography" applies what they speak of in their Introduction to help the brothers and sisters "discover that the entire story of Israel in the First Testament repeats itself in the life of Christ in the Second Testament. And it does so in almost every detail. In this regard, Jesus not only fulfills the First Testament narrative but also reenacts, relives, and replays it." In the end the authors make an astute comment: "Don't try to figure everything out or get everything right. Just let the story unfold. Let the Bible tell its own story to you. Trust the Jesus story as it moves from Genesis to Revelation. And see if the Holy Spirit doesn't open your eyes to see the greatness of Christ anew and afresh."There have been many complicated theories and opinions put forth about many sundry things in the Bible, things that get the focus instead of Christ Jesus our Lord. I would encourage you to get a copy of this excellent book and see how Christ comes afresh from the pages of the Bible. Then as you read the Bible for yourself, see, as the authors tell us, that all the words of the Bible should be in "red" letters. May the Father by His Spirit open our eyes to Christ in the Bible! And let us not stop their, because it is only the beginning, "the elementary truth's of God's word... the elementary teachings about Christ" (Hebrews 5:12, 6:1, TNIV) because in truth the Scriptures teach us that God wants us to know the Christ, in Reality in one another!May the prayer of Paul given to the brothers and sisters in Ephesus be our reality: "I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe...I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." (Ephesians 1:17-19a, 3:16-19, TNIV).
This book has taken some time for me to read. Not only is it rich in theology but it’s saturated in the overarching story of the Bible; all Scripture points to Christ.Although I knew this, I got to see the in depth view of what it looks like for all of Scripture to point to Christ. I will continue to circle back, study and reference this book.My understanding of Christ, myself and Scripture has been enlightened and I’m thankful to have taken time to work and pray through this book!
This is an excellent book bringing historical Jesus research together with theology (biography + theology = theography). As I read through the book, I felt as though a word picture of Jesus was being built through its pages. Jesus: A Theography chronicles the story of Jesus from before creation through His future return to Earth, using both old and new testaments to point toward Christ. There were many new insights to me in this book that caused me to stop and ponder a new aspect of Christ and the Christian faith. The book contains tons of research compiled in extensive end notes. I enjoyed reading some of the additional information in the end notes as much as the main text, but I enjoy reading about Jewish/Christian history. Following is a quote from near the end of the book:"This brings us back to the original thesis of this book. The Bible is the narrative of Jesus - the Christ, the Savior, the living Lord, and our All. On every page of the First [Old] Testament, God poured out His heart. He bled with His people long and hard before He entered earth through the womb of a young virgin girl in Bethlehem. In the ocean of words that many call 'the Hebrew Bible,' God revealed His character to us. He dispassionately enumerated His heart's desire - and with fiery passion, He laid out His plan. The cry of God through Jesus bled through every page from Genesis to Malachi. And in Matthew, YHWH took on human flesh and broke into planet Earth. The living Word of God clothed Himself with mortality and became one of us. And in so doing, He fulfilled every promise. Jesus, therefore, is God's best and final word."
This was not an easy read but I thoroughly appreciated the insights and the way the authors unwrapped the complexity of the premise of the book. I especially appreciated the last section of the book which was a collection of quotes by writers and theologians through the centuries establishing the same premise.
One of my FAVORITE books!!!! Reading these chapters has uncovered aspects of Jesus, the culture of the times, and modern application in aways I have never experienced before. I have read this along with the Gospels and spent time not praying but LISTENING to Jesus... I started to hear HIM speak!!! Worth the time and money! -Anastasia
