Free Download Desire of the Everlasting Hills: The World Before and After Jesus by Thomas Cahill
English | February 13, 2001 | ISBN: 0385483724 | True EPUB | 353 pages | 5.9 MB
From the bestselling author of How the Irish Saved Civilization comes a compelling historical narrative about Jesus-an obscure rabbi from a backwater of the Roman Empire who became the central figure in Western Civilization.
"Divertingly instructive...gratifying...[Cahill] makes Jesus a still-living literary presence." -The New York Times
In his subtle and engaging investigation into the life and times of Jesus, Thomas Cahill shows us Jesus from his birth to his execution through the eyes of those who knew him and in the context of his time-a time when the Jews were struggling to maintain their beliefs under overlords who imposed their worldview on their subjects. Here is Jesus the loving friend, itinerate preacher, and quiet revolutionary, whose words and actions inspired his followers to journey throughout the Roman world and speak the truth he instilled-in the face of the greatest defeat: Jesus' crucifixion as a common criminal. Daring, provocative, and stunningly original, Cahill's interpretation will both delight and surprise.
