He has applied years of scholarship and his own indisputable brilliance to the subject of Jesus. A serious treatise on the subject. This is my 2nd copy--I loaned my first to a friend who needed something to read on a long flight home to Guatemala.

But Grave 's Assumptions! Entered upon this quest with an open mind and the enthusiasm of I, Claudius in the background. But I was somewhat disappointed. I had forgotten that as good as I, Claudius was, the original Suetonius from which it was taken was better.
Then he Graves hammered his square pegs into the already-rounded holes of New Testament historic anthropology. Even the absurd notion of Jesus having his left leg ceremoniously disjointed so that he could be a lame king, according to the Greco-Dionysian formula.

Sure, there was a lot to learn from Graves rendition, and I appreciated his rational explanations for the so-called miracles, but he stretched the story of the Life of Jesus to unbelievable limits and conjectures, and that's even AFTER accepting the remote possibility that the eldest of Herod the Great's kids, Herod Antipas, MAY have been the true father of Jesus. I'm sorry, I had high hopes for this, and I'm a big fan of Graves usually, but if there is a justification for this book, it's the fact that it's clearly described as a novel, and that's how it should be cataloged, as fiction.
To get closer to the true and accurate historicity of the new Testament stories, I would heartily recommend Schonfield, even though he has his own detractors.
