Geza Vermes, geb. 1924. Lehrte von 1957 bis 1991 an den Universitäten Newcastle und Oxford. Seit 1991 war er Direktor des Forums für Qumran-Forschungen am Zentrum für Hebräische und Jüdische Studien in Oxford.
During his life Jesus did not view himself as divine, nor did his disciples. In THE CHANGING FACES OF JESUS the great scholar Vermes works back through successively earlier accounts of the life of Christ to finally reveal the true, historical figureof Jesus hidden beneath the Gospels: a Palestinian charismatic convinced he had an essential role to play in bringing about the kingdom of God.
