The Carpenter Trilogy

Millions of people have never understood Jesus as a personality; a man with dusty feet and calloused hands. Millions more might grow to love him if they could walk alongside him for a while on the dirty roads of Palestine or spend an evening by the campfire with him and his disciples talking about the God who loved fishermen, prostitutes and thieves. They might really like the Jesus who loved to laugh and tell jokes, often about institutionalized religion.In this volume of The Carpenter Trilogy, Joseph bar Sabbas, called Justus, theologian, philosopher, educator and erudite crafter of words, takes us step by step through the searing personal adventures, miracles and teachings of the Man, Jesus. Under flickering shadows he pens an irresistible story; swift-paced, romantic, violent, gentle, bawdy, comic, lyrical, hard-bitten, haunting and passionate; guiding his readers heartbeat by heartbeat in the steps of this Carpenter of wood, this Carpenter of Men.
