Three Eyes for the Journey: African Dimensions of the Jamaican Religious Experience
The book might be better titled, "Jesus the Village Psychoanalyst," because Capps' Jesus was Freudian before Freud was cool. Capps knows Freud better than Jesus, and 19th-century Europe better than 1st-century Palestine, so he interprets the unknown from the known. The result is mixed and, alas, unconvincing. Capps argues that the people that Jesus healed had conversion disorders and hysterical disorders, and Jesus healed them through transference. Maybe. I respect Capps' work in pastoral care. His work in historical Jesus studies is a bit shallow, I must confess. I hope that the next time Capps will do more of his homework.
