From: "FOR THE RECORD" "This is a book about the most dramatic day in the history of the world, the day on which Jesus of Nazareth died. It opens at 6 pm- the beginning of the Hebrew day - with Jesus and ten of the apostles coming through the pass between the Mount of Olives and the Mount of Offense en route to Jerusalem and the last Supper. The research was done a long time ago by four fine journalists: Mathew, Mark, Luke and John. The rest has been added, in bits and pieces and slivers of knowledge from many men whose names span the centuries "It is, I hope, a practical approach to the events of that day; a journalistic historian's approach rather than that of a theologian. Most of all, I wanted to see Jesus, the man, during this time when he chose to suffer as a man. And I wanted to see him move among his people, anmong the many who loved him as the Son og God,. and among the few in the timple who despised him as a faker.
