Arnal believes the issue of Jesus' Jewishness is a

this issue communicates, however obliquely, various

Scholars aggressive about Jesus' Jewishness may be
driven by:

(1) -- the agenda to save one's scholarly soul
from the legacy of German Lutherans. Sanders,
Fredriksen, Vermes, etc. have paved the way to a new
and distinctive Anglo-American scholarship, free of
Bultmannian influence. (pp 41-47)


Does Arnal suggest that being a Bultmannian is a bad thing?
