In this provocative, rigorous but highly readable work of scholarship, Dr Paul McGrane provides fresh insights and textual evidence that together forge a new understanding of the roots of Judaism and early Christianity. Adopting an entirely rationalistic approach, a close reading of the texts, not only the Bible but other contemporaneous sources, show how the historical truth has had meaning endlessly imposed on it, clouding the intentions of the original authors who were writing with very different historical criteria and for an audience of their time. There has never been anything like this in scope, in approach, and in its findings. A stunning, often riveting account of the foundations of the religion that preoccupies a third of the world's population, it will leave the reader staggered that so much has been, wilfully or otherwise, misunderstood and misrepresented for generations.
