The book is an archeological adventure and provides compelling statistical evidence for the existence of Yeshua ben Yosef (JC).
The delivery is personal yet scientific and logical. The book is a scientific and personal adventure somewhere between the rigor of a scientific journal and a populist periodical. It takes us back 2000 years to the Realpolitik of the times, relates the customs and behaviours of Jews and raises a number of interesting questions, the least of which is whether JC would have been a follower of his own movement. Another would be: we found it, what next? I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in Biblical history, theology, archeology or sociology... or anyone who enjoys a jolly good read!
I am fairly convinced by the conclusion: the only problem is that a mystery is much more exciting when it remains a mystery with all of its possibilities.

A mystery no longer

Fascinated by the author’s account of Mary Magdalene and Jesus I dove into this book with a very open mind. I found the science, mathematics and logic to be much more compelling than in my first Simchat Jacobovici read while just as juicy. Knowing that it has been thoroughly “debunked“ I made a deep dive into those debunking nabobs. I was shocked to see the lack of intellectual depth in their arguments. Most lines of attack fell on the notion that Jesus couldn’t afford a crypt or whomever buried them didn’t use the nomenclature we would expect from the New Testament… Which wouldn’t be written for another 70 to 100 years! This book brings the beef and I have yet to find a satisfying debunker.

Compelling and Difficult to Debunk

Full disclosure: I'm an Episcopalian who has always doubted the divinity of Jesus. Call me irrational, but I find more inspiration in the historical Jeshua the Nazarene than the Jesus created by Paul, and later the Romans, to further personal agendas. Thus, this book amazed me. Told like a old-fashioned detective thriller, it presents its findings concisely and with conviction. As one reviewer notes, it is impossible to say whether or not the tomb in question held the remains of the actual Jeshua the Nazarene, but the theories are plausible, the evidence adds up, and for those of you who seek the Jesus of history, you may just find this title more inspiring than a church service.

Fascinating

First, I am a Christian and inspite of the controversy over the book, my faith has not changed.Yes there is solid evidence presented here, but to me it just confirms Jesus lived and it fills in a lot of gaps. I think Science and Faith can work hand i hand.It's the reactionaries that can't see that. Although techchnically some of the info and facts presented were way over my head.Ultimately whether you believe in the resurection or not shouldn't change wit this book. I did like the voice of the reader..

Sure to stir up reactionaries
