Review:

Although most Christians know the Easter story, most do not know the full story, according to historians Glenn Kimball and David Stirland. As part of the Hidden Treasure Series (which includes Kimball's Hidden Stories of the Childhood of Jesus) this installment offers convincing research suggesting that Herod and Pilate may not have been completely responsible for the death of Jesus. In fact, the authors claim that Pontius Pilate was once revered as a martyred saint (considering that he was blackmailed into condemning Jesus to death and was later killed as a result of the crucifixion). Pilate and his wife Claudia were even recognized on the Christian calendar for 200 years after the death of Christ. The authors also explore a more intricate and lesser-known plot behind Jesus' death. Plus, they discuss evidence that others were resurrected from the dead alongside Jesus. For lay Christians who would like to learn more of the historical truths behind the legend of Christ's life and death, this series is ideal.

From the Back Cover:

Glenn Kimball and David Stirland restore for us the forgotten letters of Pontius Pilate, Herod, and the Caesars at the time of the crucifixion of Jesus. There was blackmail in the air and a forgotten belief among those we think might have wanted Him dead.

Pilate confesses to taking fifty armed guards into the streets after the crucifixion to find the dead man whom his wife had told him had risen from the dead. The ancient conversation between the resurrected Jesus and Pilate comes out of dusty, forgotten libraries. This is the reason that Pilate and his wife have risen to the status of Sainthood in many religious traditions today. The only thing left for Pilate and his wife to do after Pilate met the resurrected Jesus was to convert to early Christianity.

Why didn't the rich and Powerful great uncle of Jesus stop the crucifixion and where was he when Jesus was resurrected? The story is here. These historical accounts are taken from ancient manuscripts, in museums and libraries to this day.

The first book in the Hidden Treasure Series was "Hidden Stories of the Childhood of Jesus."
