For centuries, Jewish and Christian scholars, historians, archeologists, etc., have attempted to flesh out in finer detail the recorded accounts of the four evangelists. They have been constrained by both time and the gospels themselves. We remain, to this day, as unfamiliar as we have ever been of the fuller knowledge regarding the most important figures written of in these testaments. Assuming the mantle of historical fiction writer, I hold these characters up to the light, turning them in unusual ways, catching something that may or may not have been there but rings true to this believer's ears. My hope is that upon reading these stories, you and yours will set your minds free to wander about in these, the most extraordinary of human times. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Nativity Stories (B. Michael Fee)
