Ed Parish Sanders is an American New Testament scholar and a principal proponent of the “New Perspective on Paul”. He is a major scholar in the scholarship on the historical Jesus and contributed to the view that Jesus was part of a renewal movement within Judaism.
Moving beyond the certainties about Jesus’ historical context, principal teachings, activities, and followers, Sanders offers a fresh, enlightening approach and provides a generally convincing picture of the real Jesus, set within the world of Palestinian Judaism.
