Review Rabbi Jesus / Bantam Doubleday Dell:Bruce Chilton presents Rabbi Jesus as "the first comprehensive, critical biography of Jesus to date". Though Historical Jesus scholars have "demolished the secularist myth that Jesus was a figment of faith", and have begun to describe his ministry in the context of first century Judaism, Chilton (a professor of religion at Bard College and an Episcopal priest) believes they have not gone far enough. He argues that Jesus was "an inspired rabbi with an exclusively Jewish agenda. " Thus "everything Jesus did was as a Jew, for Jews and about Jews". Rabbi Jesus patiently explores these notions in a straightforward, accessible style, drawing on a wealth of Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic, Coptic and Syriac texts. Many of his arguments are new, and many of them are convincing. Most of them will also make the majority of both Christians and Jews sufficiently uncomfortable as to justify Chilton's striking description of his own work: "I sometimes feel as if I am cross-dressing: transgressing basic categories that define who we are [as Christians and as Jews] and how we differentiate ourselves in the world. " -Michael Joseph Gross.

Review Travels with a Primate / HarperCollins Publishers Ltd:It always seemed incongruous that the witty and urbane Archbishop Runcie should be travelling around the world with a person who looked a big, sincere missionary complete with woolly jumpers, beard and big feet. In his first book, Taken on Trust, Terry Waite communicated the complex, compassionate and intelligent man beneath the anorak. In Travels with a Primate he reminisces on the seven years of his travels with Runcie as the Archbishop's Advisor on Anglican Communion Affairs. Waite recounts various adventures as he, Runcie and a few staff members travel all over the world from Alaska to Africa and from Australia to America. As they meet ordinary people, heads of state and celebrities Waite always brings out the humorous and therefore human touch. Woven into the anecdotes are interesting snippets of history about the Archbishops of Canterbury, Lambeth Palace and the complex organism called the Anglican Communion. Anglicans are better than most religious people at laughing at themselves; and without preaching, Terry Waite manages to communicate quiet trust in a God who is in charge despite the sometimes tumultuous and chaotic activities of mankind. If the book has a weakness it is the sense that Waite is not totally at home in his genre. His stories are interesting and fun, but often the humour is a bit laboured resulting in more smiles than laughs. Nevertheless, Travels with a Primate is a good, relaxing read and manages to educate and inspire without failing to entertain. [+]-Dwight Longenecker.
