'BOOK OF JESUS' - Based Entirely on the Canonical Gospels
the 'book of jesus' is based upon the historically reliable texts of sts. matthew, mark, luke & john
Though many other gospels appeared over the centuries after Jesus, the gospels of the first four evangelists Matthew, Mark, Luke & John (all written during the 1st century A.D.) can be credited with the highest level of historical accuracy, being closest in time to the events about which they write. The language chosen for the composition of their accounts was in each case Koine (Hellenistic) Greek - though there is speculation that a gospel in Aramaic (Hebrew) existed first
the gospels are given new life in A poetic form
In 'Book of Jesus' the four gospels of the New Testament evangelists have been transformed into a single gospel written entirely in English verse. Every one of the 285 poetic sections of the work have been composed based upon episodes occurring in the original gospel sources
based UPon new advances in bIBlical scholarship
The poetic text of 'Book of Jesus' was arrived at following a lengthy research process into the texts on which it has been based, including its original Koine Greek sources. -
According to the translator : "This was always going to be a most challenging book to create in poetic form, not only due to its multiple sources, but because of the plethora of results from gospel scholarship that cannot be ignored when the central aim is to produce a dependable text"
