In Killing a Messiah, New Testament scholar Adam Winn weaves together stories of historical and fictional characters in a fresh reimagining of the events leading up to Jesus's execution. Based on what we know of the first-century context, Winn's narrative offers compelling explanations for gaps in the Gospel accounts. The social, political, and religious realities of Jesus's world come to life and shed new light on our reading of the biblical texts. In a city full of political entanglements, espionage, and competing interests, the blame for the crucifixion is complex.

A fresh and historically informed re-telling of Jesus’ life, trial and crucifixion
Revisado: 07-21-24
It’s well-read, gripping and backed by strong scholarship and very clever integration of all sorts of pieces of information in the accounts of the gospels. It really brings the personal and social context to life from the perspective of the participants, especially those outside of Jesus’ inner circle.
