O knihe

One Friday afternoon 2000 years ago, a man died,
and changed the course of human history. This
book invites you to take a new look at who that
man was. You will not find the familiar
comfortable figure you learned about in church
and school RE lessons. This Jesus is very different.
The novel traces the story of a man who was fully
human, with a human father, human wife and
human children. Part of the freedom struggle
against a corrupt and dictatorial local government,
supported by foreign oppression, we follow his
attempts to feel his way through the minefield of
Jewish and Roman politics in first century
Palestine. This man shares our doubts and fears
and struggles to find a meaning to his life and
work, while facing apparent failure in his main
task.
Although set in first century Palestine, this is a
very modern book. The Jesus you will find here
you could find in the local market or high street.
The issues he faces are very modern ones, and the
individuals he meets, you, the reader, could just as
easily meet.
At the end of the novel you will be met with two
fundamental questions - Who was this man? - and
- What exactly did he do?
