Part I
In the sixth chapter to A Hitchhiker’s Guide to Jesus, the bold topic of rising the dead is discussed, one of Jesus’s miracles (188). In the book of Luke many of Jesus’s stories take place in Jerusalem; Norm visits the window that shows a view of the Dome of the Rock and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (191-193). Norm looks at parallels in the Bible of the coming of the king and how this affects his status according to his people (195-200). Norm also travels to the Temple Mount where he Jesus role in this location as he walked around the Temple and also a section on intertextually of God’s temple (200-207). Norm also evaluates how the people were presuming on grace; Jesus calls them a “Den of robbers” in his disappointment (211). Norm takes a look at Judas’s life on earth and also with the Passover meal comparisons (214, 221).
Part II
John is written from a perspective of understanding, believing, and living; therefore written like a novel (188). John becomes very factual with his wording, taken from Luke’s Gospel which is written as a story. With John’s process of understanding, we can see something Mark’s gospel does not have; the flow of stories without seeming as negative as Mark’s version of Jesus. This makes John’s gospel more believable because it writes stories in a textual twist which is very “matter of fact.” It seems odd that Jesus wanted to have his status as Christ kept quiet, yet he is called other high status names such as king as Norm points out in his parallel of the gospels, Zechariah, and Solomon (195-200). With many unclear issues that come from Judas, it is interesting that the Bible does not make it a priority to set Judas’s happenings strait because of his status in the Bible.
