reviewed Jesus of Nazareth on
"Jesus of Nazareth" could be said to be Pope Benedict XVI's personal response to the question "who is Jesus?". In the forward, he makes it clear that he is writing from his own personal perspective (which is also why the book was published under Joseph Ratzinger and not merely Pope Benedict XVI). Pope Benedict XVI writes a personal reflection of the life of Christ in "Jesus of Nazareth," not a dogmatic treatise. That said, there's nothing in "Jesus of Nazareth" that goes against his Catholic faith; instead, Pope Benedict XVI rescues Jesus from current trends to view Jesus outside of His depiction in the Gospels. This book is a return to the Gospels to rediscover (and recover) the true identity of Jesus.
