In this book Jesus Seminar member John Dominic Crossan seeks to follow the premier historical Jesus authority and an archaeologist as they search the texts and stones of antiquity for the real Jesus. New materials have been found to shed light on the Gospels. The author presents a summary of archaeological (e.g., the house of Peter in Capernaum, the skeleton of the crucified Jehochanan) and textual discoveries (e.g., the Dead Sea Scrolls, NagHammadi codices) with their implications.
