About This Item
160 pages, 1st edition, very good condition for age.
From the inside cover - To Britannicus, a veterinary sergeant in a Roman auxiliary force stationed in Palestine, to his officers and to the Roman Procurator, the activities of an obscure Jewish prophet were cause for considerable alarm. Could Jesus of Nazareth be the looked for leader of a nationalist uprising which might overwhelm a small body of foreign troops precariously occupying a turbulent land?
Britannicus had ample opportunity to observe Jesus and listen to him, for his duties sent him to Galilee to keep watch on the camel caravans for disease or accident. There, although he became convinced that Jesus had no political ambitions, he was increasingly impressed by the mans teaching and his strange understanding of animals.
Later, in Jerusalem, Britannicus found himself an unwilling witness to Jesus' trial before Pontius Pilate, a scene that he was never able to forget.
