Liberal Scholar Dale C. Allison on the Crucifixion of Jesus

 


Muslim apologist Paul Williams brought the liberal scholar Dale Allison on his show in order to (probably) get information from him to support his attack against Christianity and the Gospel.


However, William's favorite scholar has some strong disagreements with the Qur'an (4:157) concerning the crucifixion of Jesus:


"Almost everyone in the guild takes for granted [presumably including Allison] that Jesus was a Jew who lived in first-century Palestine, that his parents were named Mary and Joseph, that he taught in parables, that he spoke about God's reign, and that he was crucified in Jerusalem" (The Historical Christ and the Theological Jesus, pg. 9, brackets mine)
