About this ebook

Two thousand years ago, Jesus walked across Galilee; everywhere he traveled he gained followers. His contemporaries are familiar historical figures: Julius Caesar, Caesar Augustus, Herod the Great, Pontius Pilate. It was an era of oppression, when every man, woman, and child answered to the brutal rule of Rome. In this world, Jesus lived, and in this volatile political and historical context, Jesus died—and changed the world forever. Adapted from Bill O'Reilly's bestselling historical thriller Killing Jesus, and richly illustrated, The Last Days of Jesus is a riveting, fact-based account of the life and times of Jesus.

How is this book factual? This guy is a yarn spinning, woman hating, egomaniac just like the authors of the bible. You will enjoy this book if you're the type of person who ignores a natural history museum in favor of a plastic display of jesus riding a t-rex.

*I received it as a gift. Bill O'Reilly sure seems to enjoy presenting dumbed-down quasi-truths in any medium he can get his angry hands upon. He skips SO much, and subtle, frequent, & oddly-executed tweaks are transparent.

How the heck does he know. Trust the apostles that were there, not Bill O Reilly. He must be hard up for cash.
