<p>Crispin points out that in modern academia, it is often assumed that Christ didnt<br />
consider himself divine. Instead, academics consider that Christs divinity was<br />
later imposed on him by the early church.<br />
Crispin points to some weaknesses in this argument and offers some refreshing<br />
critiques.<br />
Included in his points are:<br />
• The high priest is a new Adam.<br />
• The high priest as “Gods image” is tied to the idea of the temple as a<br />
microcosm.<br />
• The high priest is, in a sense, “Israel.”<br />
• Because the high priest is a representative of Israel, he is also a royal figure,<br />
because one of the tribes of Israel is the royal line (the tribe of Judah).<br />
• The high priest is an office, not a person.<br />
About Dr. Fletcher-Louis:<br />
Dr. Crispin Fletcher-Louis is a biblical scholar and teacher. He studied at Keble<br />
College, Oxford as an undergraduate when E.P. Sanders and N.T. Wright were<br />
University lecturers, and for his doctorate, under Chris Rowland (on angelology in<br />
Lukes Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles). He then taught in the Theology and<br />
Religious Studies departments of Kings College, London, Durham University, and<br />
Nottingham University. From 20042006 he served as Resident Theologian at St<br />
Marys Bryanston Sq., a thriving church in Central London. With growing demand<br />
for deeper theological teaching across the region, in 2006 he spearheaded the<br />
creation of Westminster Theological Centre (WTC).<br />
In July 2012 Crispin stepped down as Principal of WTC and is now engaged in<br />
research, writing, and the development of new teaching material. He continues to<br />
provide informal teaching to local churches and consultancy to businesses<br />
interested in the optimization of material and spiritual value creation. His research<br />
and teaching focuses on the overarching shape of the biblical story (its key<br />
themes and theological questions). In particular, he writes about the nature of our<br />
human identity and purpose, temple worship and spirituality, apocalyptic and<br />
Jewish mysticism, Jesus identity (Christology) and the Gospel accounts of his life.<br />
Crispin is currently engaged in a four-volume book writing project on Jesus and<br />
the origins of the earliest beliefs about him (Jesus Monotheism). The first volume<br />
(Jesus Monotheism. Volume 1. Christological Origins: The Emerging Consensus<br />
and Beyond) (hard copy: Eugene, Or: Wipf &amp; Stock; digital copy: Whymanity)<br />
appeared in 2015.</p>
<p>There is a blog dedicated to the Jesus Monotheism project. For more on<br />
Crispins academic work you can visit his webpage at academia.edu.<br />
Crispin is married to Mary and has two children, Emily and Reuben.</p>
