John Nelson earned a PhD in New Testament and Christian Origins from the University of Edinburgh in 2023. His thesis is the first book-length study of Jesus' physical appearance in the Gospels. He runs a weekly Substack called "Behind the Gospels" which aims to make Biblical studies accessible to all.
