Industry Reviews

"A well-written guide to the archaeology behind Jesus' death and burial, written by one of Jerusalem's finest archaeologists." -- Jonathan L. Reed, author of the HarperCollins Visual Guide to the New Testament

"Shimon Gibson, an archaeologist with many years of experience working in Israel, presents an up-to-date and credible description of discoveries relating to Jesus' last days. Gibson synthesizes evidence from archaeology and the New Testament to craft a clear and enjoyable account." -- Jodi Magness, Professor of Early Judaism, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

"For over 25 years, Gibson, a distinguished archaeologist, has excavated in and near Jerusalem's walls. The book, directed to a wide audience, is rigorously scientific, and frequently brilliant. It is a must read for all Jews and Christians who are curious about Jesus and his final fateful week in Jerusalem." -- James H. Charlesworth, George L. Collord Professor of New Testament Language and Literature, Princeton University

"An expert archaeologist's valuable insights on the final days of Jesus." -- Geza Vermes, FBA, University of Oxford, author of JESUS THE JEW and THE PASSION

"Gibson's book punctures fourth century mythology with first century evidence drawn from intimate knowledge of the great city of Jerusalem. Gibson's background in landscape archaeology and his analyses of the physical evidence...combine to provide a provocative series of observations and insights." -- Herb Krosney, author of The Lost Gospel: The Quest for the Gospel of Judas Iscariot
