"Philochristus " by Edwin Abbott Abbott is a memoir of one of the many followers of Jesus Christ, but it is the subject of ongoing research into Christ's time, including works by historians, and Jewish writings (for example the Talmud), and the holy books. Excerpt: " My former name was Joseph the son of Simeon, and I was born in Sepphoris, the metropolis of Galilee, in the twentieth year of the reign of the Emperor Augustus, about four years before the death of King Herod. In those days Israel was grievously afflicted, and tribulation befell the righteous. Satan put it into the heart of the rulers of the land to move the people to the worship of false gods, and the Lord God had not yet raised up a Redeemer for Israel."
