{"product_id":"9781893548008","title":"Hidden Politics of the Crucifixion","description":"\u003cb\u003eFrom the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e  The cricifixion of Jesus was the most important event in  the understanding of the life of Jesus. We all know the Biblical account of  these events. However, one critical perspective has been kept secret for two  thousand years. This perspective comes from those whom we have wrongfully  held responsible for His death. Pilate and Herod have left their letters for  us as a peek into this monumental event. These letters hold the secret to  the reason that Pilate and his wife, Claudia Procula, were celebrated on the  calendar of ancient Christian Holidays for two hundred years after the  crucifixion. Few know that Pilate lost his life as a result of the  crucifixion and was raised to the status of Sainthood by the earliest  Christians.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  The historical evidence cries out for the real story of Pilate.  For the first time his story comes to us in Pilate's own words. It is the  most spectacular story of faith in all the discoveries in recent history.  The last story in the book is the account of Joesph of Arimathea at the time  of the crucifixion recorded by his friend and fellow Sanhedrin Councilman,  Nicodemus. These writings tell the spectacular story of the second greatest  miracle at the time of the crucifixon. Joseph of Arimathea was not a  stranger to the family of Jesus, nor a mere friend. He was the great 'Foster  Father' of Jesus who provided for the Holy Family from the time of the death  of Joseph who was married to the Virgin Mary.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  The tomb in which Jesus was  laid was a family tomb. Joseph of Arimthea's arrest at the time of the  crucifixion and his miraculous escape has been held sacred and secret from  the masses far too long. The witness accounts of others who were raised with  Jesus from the dead have been widely known by the clergy of many traditions.  These two 'Rabi' or 'Angels', depending on the source of the tales, have  finally been made known. How many traditions of these resurrected men must  be found before we will believe them?   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  This is a story of Easter that will  last for centuries to come. We no longer have reason to be afraid of our own  history.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Glenn Kimball (gkimball@xmission.com) February 13, 1999\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kimball","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47048261894384,"sku":"9781893548008","price":12.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781893548008_p0.jpg?v=1763609829","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781893548008","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
