"In recent years, there has been considerable debate concerning the origin of divine
Christology. Nevertheless, the proposed theories are beset with problems, such as
failing to address the evidence of widespread agreement among the earliest Christians
concerning divine Christology, and the issues related to whether Jesus' intention
was falsified. This book offers a new contribution by addressing these issues using
transdisciplinary tools. It proposes that the earliest Christians regarded Jesus as
divine because a sizeable group of them perceived that Jesus claimed and showed himself
to be divine, and thought that God vindicated this claim by raising Jesus from the
dead. It also provides a comprehensive critique of alternative proposals, and synthesizes
their strengths. It defends the appropriateness and merits of utilizing philosophical
distinctions (e.g. between ontology and function) and Trinitarian concepts for explaining
early Christology, and incorporates comparative religion by examining cases of deification
in other contexts."-- from the publisher
