This volume comprises seven biographical studies and theological re-evaluations of a range of major British New Testament scholars of the 1920s and 1930s, whose business was Biblical Criticism. They have been selected because they were pioneers in British scholarship, particularly in their contrasting attitudes towards scholars from mainland Europe, and in their preparation of the way for later American scholarly work.

John Meier's previous volumes in the acclaimed series A Marginal Jew are founded upon the notion that while solid historical information about Jesus is quite limited, people of different faiths can nevertheless arrive at a consensus on fundamental historical facts of his life. In this eagerly anticipated fourth volume in the series, Meier approaches a fresh topic-the teachings of the historical Jesus concerning Mosaic Law and morality-with the same rigor, thoroughness, accuracy, and insightfulness on display in his earlier works.
