The third book in Bill O'Reilly's multimillion bestselling Killing series, Killing Jesus delivers the story of Jesus's crucifixion as it's never been told before.
Sixteen million readers have been thrilled by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard's Killingseries, page-turning works of nonfiction that have changed the way we read history.
Now the anchor of The O'Reilly Factor, the highest-rated cable news show in the country, details the events leading up to the murder of the most influential man who ever lived: Jesus of Nazareth. Nearly two thousand years after this beloved and controversial young revolutionary was brutally killed by Roman soldiers, more than 2.2 billion people attempt to follow his teachings and believe he is God. In this fascinating and fact-based account of Jesus's life and times, Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Caesar Augustus, Herod the Great, Pontius Pilate, and John the Baptist are among the many legendary historical figures who rise up off the page. Killing Jesus not only takes readers inside this most volatile epoch, it also recounts the seismic political and historical events that made Jesus's death inevitable--and changed the world forever.
