Synopsis

He was known as the Rabbi of Nazareth, although he was born in Bethlehem and his ministry had spread out from Capernaum as the center of it. He was misunderstood in various ways, especially by the religious leaders of the time. He pointed out their hypocrisy while they tried to earn the favor of God though legalism, but at the same time they had very little compassion for the outcasts or others in suffering. They were enraged when he healed someone on the Sabbath, instead of being glad about the healing of someone born blind, crippled for life, demon-possessed, afflicted by leprosy or other debilitating or terminal illnesses.
The greatest true story of all time is here being told as a novel, with the experience of the feelings and emotions that are implicit in the Bible narrative. The tears and heartbrokenness at a friend’s grave, fury about unkindness, exuberant laughter about something funny, angst in adversity, jubilation at a wedding, a great catch or a great culinary experience at a festive banquet, or about the greatest gift of all, winning the galactic lottery, palpable and real, profoundly human.
He gave up everything of his Heavenly glory, except for one thing: his love for humankind. The conflict and animosity increased during his ministry of around three years, until the final showdown, which had far-reaching consequences.
The purpose was to write an easy, fun-to-read story. The prayer and wish are that everyone who reads this book will be blessed in many ways.
