Review

There is much in the book that needs saying and the sooner people are encouraged to confront it the better. I found all the historical background and its bearing on the accuracy of the gospels fascinating; the Signs of the Times is interesting; the pre-70 / post-70 discussion of the Gospel of Mark is extremely thought-provoking; the introduction to Midrash should be issued to every Bible Study Group in the country. -- Brian W.J.G. Wilson, author, broadcaster, scholar of Christ's College, Cambridge

"To tread the path of truth is never easy as the natural instincts of humans is to sit and enjoy their comfort zones. The author takes the courage to challenge traditionalist views of a comfort zone locked in the past, bringing alive a beautiful interpretation on living in Jesus in this ever increasing diverse world." -- Anil Bhanot, General Secretary of the Hindu Council of U.K.
