Since Albert Schweitzer's monumental work, nearly a century ago, psychology has been banned from Historical Jesus research. But both disciplines have advanced and it is time to review the contribution that psychology can make. Bas Van Os examines the problems which surround both the historical and the psychological study of Jesus, such as the fact that we can only work with the surviving traditions that some of his early followers left us. Following this, Van Os proposes a theoretical framework that combines sound psychological theories and critical biblical scholarship to explain how Jesus' life and religious experience impacted the beliefs of his friends and family after his death.

Van Os's book is a prodigious achievement, breaking ground simultaneously in three field: historical Jesus research, psychological biblical criticism, and early church studies...The lucid three-part structure of the book with annotated summaries at the beginning of each part and conclusions at the end of each chapter all provide welcome guidance for the reader. The usefulness of the book is enhanced by the inclusion of an extensive bibliography, an index of biblical references, and an index of authors.
