07.30: Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth
2013-06-13 22:35:35| Powells Books Events Calendar
Sifting through centuries of mythmaking, Reza Aslan sheds new light on one of history's most influential and enigmatic characters by examining Jesus through the lens of the tumultuous era in which he lived: first-century Palestine, an age awash in apocalyptic fervor. Balancing the Jesus of the Gospels against the historical sources, Aslan describes a man full of conviction and passion yet rife with contradiction, a man of peace who exhorted his followers to arm themselves with swords, an exorcist and faith healer who urged his disciples to keep his identity a secret, and ultimately the seditious "King of the Jews" whose promise of liberation from Rome went unfulfilled in his brief lifetime. Aslan explores the reasons why the early Christian church promulgated an image of Jesus as a peaceful spiritual teacher rather than a politically conscious revolutionary. Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth (Random House) is a fascinating, provocative, and well-researched biography that challenges long-held assumptions about the man we know as Jesus of Nazareth.
