The following explanation is taken from an article written by H. Alan Brehm. I quote him verbatim and take none of these assertions as my own; I only offer them as a succinct explanation of Schweitzer's argument from Brehm's perspective:
"In contrast to the disregard for Jesus' historical context by the main stream of the "Quest of the Historical Jesus," Albert Schweitzer sought to assert an understanding of Jesus based on Jewish apocalyptic eschatology, following the lead of Johannes Weiss. Schweitzer argued that Jesus expected the "Son of Man" to appear during his ministry and establish God's Kingdom on earth. When that did not happen, Jesus determined to provoke the Jewish authorities to execute him, believing that his death would trigger the events leading to God's intervention in history. Although Jesus died sadly mistaken in his apocalyptic notions, his death has impact upon modern Christians by inspiring them to emulate his sacrifice. Thus Schweitzer brought the original "Quest of the Historical Jesus" to a close by moving scholarship closer to an understanding of Jesus in his own cultural milieu, while simultaneously undercutting any substantial relevance of his ministry and message for the modern world" (6).

Albert Schweitzer argued that the historical Jesus should be understood in the context of his time and not through modern interpretations. He believed that Jesus was a eschatological preacher who expected the imminent end of the world and that this belief shaped his teachings and actions. Schweitzer's work emphasizes the need to approach the study of Jesus with historical rigor and critical analysis.
Albert Schweitzer worked as a medical missionary in Gabon, Africa, from 1913 until his death in 1965. He founded a hospital in Lambarene and dedicated his life to providing medical care for the local population. Schweitzer was also a theologian, philosopher, and organist.
No, José Rizal was a Filipino nationalist and revolutionary who played a key role in the Philippines' struggle for independence from Spanish colonial rule. Jesus, on the other hand, is a central figure in Christianity and is believed to be the Son of God in Christian theology. The two figures have different historical, cultural, and religious contexts.
All of the above Apex ;)
Hermes, Thoth, and Jesus are not considered the same figure in mythology and religion. Hermes is the Greek god of transitions and boundaries, Thoth is the Egyptian god of knowledge and writing, and Jesus is a central figure in Christianity believed to be the Son of God. Each has distinct cultural and religious contexts.
The phrase "seeing is believing" is commonly attributed to Saint Thomas, who was a disciple of Jesus. It reflects his initial doubt about Jesus' resurrection until he physically saw and touched Jesus.
The argument for Jesus being the Son of God is that the Bible says so. If there is any doubt as to the reliability of the Bible, then there is no support for the argument that Jesus is the Son of God.
The Quest of the Historical Jesus was created in 1910.
