The Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus provides an international forum for the academic discussion of Jesus within the social, cultural and historical context of first-century Palestine. Individual articles address a range of topics and could include literacy, slavery, scribal habits, constructions of masculinity and gender, urbanity, memory, and class conflict whilst also recognizing the limits of our knowledge and the conditions of our historical inquiries. The journal is accessible to all who are interested in how this complex yet vital topic has been investigated in the past as well as how it is presented today.
The Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus welcomes original papers that discuss the latest developments in academic research, bearing in mind diverse perspectives from the wider humanities, in order to shed new light on Jesus and his world. We are particularly interested in, but not limited to, papers that:
• consider methodological issues surrounding the reconstruction of the historical Jesus
• take a meta-critical approach to the history of research on Jesus
• explore how the life of Jesus has been portrayed in historiographical reception and its influence on the development of diverse Christianities or in other religions
• identify common challenges in teaching of the historical Jesus and consider whether conventional approaches should be fundamentally disrupted
