Synopsis
The death of Jesus has been a subject of intense debate throughout the history of Christianity. John Dominic Crossan states definitively that it was the Roman government that tried and executed Jesus for being a social agitator. Not only has the belief that the Jews killed Jesus served as the basis for rampant anti-Semitism throughout history, argues Crossan, but it is also historically untrue.

Publisher's Note
The death of Jesus is one of the most hotly debated questions in Christianity today. In his massive and highly publicized The Death of the Messiah, Raymond Brown -- while clearly rejecting anti-Semitism -- never questions the essential historicity of the passion stories. Yet it is these stories, in which the Jews decide Jesus execution, that have fueled centuries of Christian anti-Semitism. Now, in his most controversial book, John Dominic Crossan shows that this traditional understanding of the Gospels as historical fact is not only wrong but dangerous. Drawing on the best of biblical, anthropological, sociological and historical research, he demonstrates definitively that it was the Roman government that tried and executed Jesus as a social agitator. Crossan also candidly addresses such key theological questions as "Did Jesus die for our sins?" and "Is our faith in vain if there was no bodily resurrection?" Ultimately, however, Crossan's radical reexamination shows that the belief that the Jews killed Jesus is an early Christian myth (directed against rival Jewish groups) that must be eradicated from authentic Christian faith.
This passionately argued book, written by the bestselling author of The Historical Jesus and Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography, will strike a chord with "anyone concerned with the rising tide of anti-Semitism in our world, anyone fascinated by the origins of Christianity, and anyone who likes a good mystery" (Susannah Heschel). "An excellent study".--Library Journal.

Industry reviews
"Given the spectacular drama of [Christ's] crucifixion and the emotions it is capable of creating, the charge against those deemed responsible has been, historically, the ultimate j'accuse....As fundamentalists keep insisting that the 'inspired word of God' is hard fact in the face of science and sense, the discussion of religious myth and metaphor, along with scriptural intention, becomes an inevitable reality. In this book as well as others, John Domenic Crossan is in the pioneering forefront of investigative Christian thought."
