Exploring the concept of Jesus' faith in God, this book delves into the early church's perspective, contrasting it with contemporary beliefs. It begins with an analysis of faith in Judaism and Graeco-Roman texts, followed by a thorough examination of the New Testament, including the Synoptic Gospels and Pauline writings. Two key trajectories emerge: one focused on discipleship and the other on salvation. The study extends to the first four centuries of Christian literature, culminating in a discussion of the Arian controversy and its impact on the understanding of Jesus' faith within orthodoxy.
