By Bill O’Reilly & Martin Dugard
294 pages
Killing Jesus is not a religious book but a historical writing on
the life and times of Jesus of Nazareth. It places Jesus’ life
within a fascinating historical background. The book also details information
on Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Tiberius and Herod. It gives one a sense of everyday
life as a Jewish follower under the oppressive Roman political government.
The publication ends with the crucifixion, burial and the
discovery of the empty tomb three days later. As a follower of Christ, I found
the historical background very insightful to understand the scriptures, in a
new historical light. I enjoyed it greatly.
