Donald L. Denton is Senior Lecturer in Biblical Studies at Westmont College, California.
"...if you want to see what a thoughtful, modernist historical
critic has to say that is critical of biblical historical
criticism- i.e., ‘from within', as it were. Or if you're looking
for succinct, insightful discussion of the views of either Crossan
or Meyer. The book is generally well written... There is a helpful
introduction and an extensive bibliography, and indexes of names
and biblical citations."- George Aichele, The Bible and Critical
Theory, Vol. 2, Number 1, 2006
*George Aichele*
'The author examines the work of two historical Jesus scholars who
stand out in the field for their rigorous attention to method, and
makes a case for the late BEn Meyer;s method as presenting advances
over that of Crossan.' ~ International Review of Biblical Studies,
vol 51, 2004/05
'This book is a must read for anyone interested in historical Jesus
research...for its analyses thereof. In fact, it must count as one
of the finest explorations of historiography in Jesus research.' ~
Pieter F Craffert, Neotestamentica 40.1 (2006)
*Pieter F Craffert*
"Donald L. Denton has written a helpful book which presents the
case for ‘holism', broadly conceived, in a convincing and
interesting way, and in so doing makes a number of acute remarks
about the two scholars with whom he is principally concerned."
James Carleton Paget, University of Cambridge, The Journal of
Theological Studies
"...Denton provides an in-depth analysis of historiography that
includes discussion not only of Crossan and Meyer but of other
significant Jesus scholars as well. I highly recommend this book to
those interested in NT historiography and for specialists in the
field of historical Jesus studies." - Journal of the Evangelical
Theological Society
