Jesus the Nazarene (eBook, ePUB)

The Talmud and the Founder of Christianity

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The historical Jesus is as elusive as he is appealing. Everyone wants to find who the man really was. Scholars pour over the pages of the New Testament and apocryphal literature for any clue about his true identity. People have looked in all places for answers--except one. The Talmud contains a powerful counter-narrative to the Christian and scholarly consensus about Jesus. Did Jesus live in the first century BCE? Was he the son of a Roman soldier? Did he perform magic? Why was he executed? These are all questions that the Talmud answers, pointing us closer to knowing who the historical Jesus was and when he lived. Within these pages, you will find a clear presentation of the Talmud's narrative and some of the implications of this narrative for our understanding of Jesus as a Jewish man from Greco-Roman Palestine.
