Description
This is a scholarly attempt to restore the Jesus's original gospel. It seeks to eliminate the interpolations and additions that have accrued to the New Testament over time and give some idea of what the authors think Jesus of Nazareth actually believed and asserted during his lifetime. Graves provides the poetic intuition and Podro provides the scholarly background. Note that the authors do not consider this a work of fiction but rather a work of scholarly interpretation based on historical facts.
