Full Description
In this newly revised and expanded edition, bestselling author Lon Milo DuQuette shares a groundbreaking and irreverent retelling of Jesus Christ's life. DuQuette draws on modern scholarship and his depth of occult experience to transport you to ancient Galilee and bring to life the people in it. Told from the perspective of Jesus's Uncle Clopas, this provocative novel sheds new light on ancient questions. Jesus's teachings, his healing ability, and his miraculous feats brought him fame, adoration, resentment, and ultimately death (or did they?). Interweaving biblical quotes with historical facts and fiction, DuQuette immerses you in a thought-provoking story that offers a plausible case for how distorted the Jesus myth may have become. Funny, tragic, and thrilling, this novel both inspires and challenges your thinking about Jesus.
