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 unique perspective
Revisado: 01-28-20
First, this is not a book about religion. It deals with the political climate of Judea at the time of Jesus; the days leading up to the arrest of Jesus; the trial of Jesus; and the crucifixion of Jesus as seen through the eyes of the Roman and Jewish authorities. It's the telling of an old story from a new perspective with some unique twists. Whether you are a Christian or an Atheist, you will like this book.
