Jesus the Man
An Introduction for People
at Home in the Modern WorldMarvin F. Cain  Can scientifically-minded people understand Jesus in a way that
does not require them to sacrifice their intellect for their religion? Using modern historical scholarship, the results of archaeology, and tools provided by other scholarly disciplines, Marvin Cain
combines the skills of a university religion professor and an electrical engineer to set forth a straightforward and objective portrait of Jesus as a first-century man. In Jesus the Man, he
describes the historical and political world of Jesus, his family, his teaching, his healing, and his suffering and death. Initially conceived for an audience of scientists and engineers, Jesus the Man
will appeal to anyone at home in the modern world.
