You will find what your desire is.
This is my third book by Mr. Cahill. I found this one as I did the other two by checking the authors name out on E-Bay and buying the first two in his series. This tome is one that I had to read in pieces, chew on it a bit then read more. Thomas sets this Jesus in his time and place. What the world around him was like before him and after him. I will now have to go back to scripture with a different eye and heart. I cannot not give the ending away because I am sure that the printed pages although the same, will be savored by the reader differently. Enjoy...Read full review...
The HInges of History
I enjoyed the depth that this book goes to concerning the history that took place surrounding the coming of Jesus. Also, the author goes into detail about the different authors of the new testament, who they were and what motivated them to write the way they did. I especially appreciated the insight into what was left out of the bible and what was insterted into it. These are not significant enough, however, to take away from the authenticity of the bible. It is part of a 7 book series called "The Hinges of History". Although this book is largely historical, he keeps his writings very entertaining.Read full review...
Outstanding Book About Christ's Impact on the World
Thomas Cahill's books are nuggets of pure gold about history and the impact of different peoples to our world. To anyone interest in history I recommend this author and this book highly.
