4.0 out of 5 stars An fascinating investigation of the man they called Jesus, 6 Nov 2000
This book is not just for christians; nor is it just for people of great religous faith. It is quite clear that Jesus Christs teachings are present all around us every day. In the western world we live by his morals, ethics and teachings. Or at least try to, whether we admit to it or not. But who was he? This book starts from the position that Jesus was a man rather than a divine being. It puts foreward various fascinating possibilities of what this man must have been like 2,000 years ago. The book uses historical fact intergrated with bible readings, and facts we know about how the bible was written to put foreward very convincing scenarios of the kind of man Jesus was (if he were just a man)and the kind of world he would be living in. Enlightening and insightful it will make provoke further thought on beliefs we unthinkingly take for granted. The only thing I did not like about this book is it was a little too academic at times, and a little dry, but it is full of rich historical fact
