MIRACLES AND WONDER: The Historical Mystery of Jesus
Pagels suggests the authors of the gospels were writing in wartime under occupation, and their lives were endangered for spreading the gospel of a man who was executed as an insurrectionist. Some of the most electrifying details of the gospels may have been crafted to avoid prosecution or to otherwise explain inconvenient facts. Illustrated in color.
