Any serious attempt to find the meaning of Christian faith must put at risk our sanity and our moral integrity this is Peter Harvey's startling contention in The Morals of Jesus. He argues that to view Jesus as the supreme example of moral goodness and his teaching as offering a set of moral commands is to miss the point. Peter Harvey states that there is little evidence to suggest that Jesus was very interested in morals. He thinks that morality has loomed large in Christian history only because of fear of individual and social disintegration. Peter Harvey supports his argument by a close analysis of some of the 'hard sayings' of Jesus. He shows how a fresh look at these sayings can free us from subservience to rigid principles and release creativity. In this freedom we can experience a new wonder and hope in God and explore new dimensions of morality.
