From the rear cover
"Written by a first-rate expert on the New Testament, Republican Jesus is a compelling and no-holds-barred tour de force: whatever proponents of the Christian right might claim, the Republican Jesus stands radically at odds with the Jesus of the Gospels. This is a must-read for our divisive and dangerous times."--Bart D. Ehrman, author of Heaven and Hell: A History of the Afterlife
"Tony Keddie's indispensable book serves as the final word on Republican attempts to claim ownership over Jesus Christ, whose actual words and deeds stand as an eternal condemnation of nearly every Republican goal in the last half decade of American political life."--Reza Aslan, author of Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth
"Keddie makes a convincing case that the leaders of the Christian Right, and especially Donald Trump's court evangelicals, have often allowed politics to shape their reading of the Bible and not the other way around."--John Fea, author of Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump
