My book on New Testament Christology
From Messiah to Preexistent Son: Jesus' self-consciousness and early Christian exegesis of Messianic psalms (Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament 2.Reihe 192; Tübingen, Germany : Mohr Siebeck, 2005).
Book Description
How did the earliest Christians come to see Jesus as a divine and preexistent being alongside God? Aquila Lee proposes that the root of preexistent Son Christology is to be found in early Christian exegesis of the two messianic psalms (the catalyst) in the light of Jesus' self-consciousness of divine sonship and divine mission (the foundation).
