Over 350 full color photographs from Zeffirelli's movie, Jesus of Nazareth, help the new publication, "Chronicle of the Life and Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth," bring Jesus to life for modern readers as never before.
The "Chronicle of the Life and Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth" is laid out in newspaper style, including photographs, dates, times, locations, facts and background information. Some of these news articles report the reactions of the people who witness the events. The objective reporting style unfolds the stories as current news, in a manner that is relevant to the lives of contemporary readers.
The events depicted in the "Chronicle of the Life and Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth" harmonize with the Gospels as presented in the Bible. Coauthor Larry Mullins said: "These biblical records have been sufficient to change the course of history for 2000 years. However, there are many gaps in the Gospel narratives. As a result, speculations of various kinds about what may have taken place during the so-called 'lost years of Jesus' have been published in numerous books and articles. Joan and I examined the plausibility of many of these supplementary sources. Only one, in our judgment, contains wholesome and credible substance about these 'lost years' that is in congruence with the known Gospels. That source is 'The Urantia Book.'"
In the "Chronicle of the Life and Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth" the extraordinary life of Jesus is detailed in news stories from his childhood, through his years of private ministry, and culminating in his tumultuous public career. In a culture in which women were not allowed to sit with the men in the temple, we learn that Jesus dared to teach that men and women are equal, and even established a women's corps of evangelists. Within the simple word-symbols Jesus used, "the fatherhood of God and the family of all humankind," is the profound essence of his revelation. His dedication to service and his faith in God's inner guidance as exemplified in the Chronicle are an inspiration to all races, cultures, and religions.
Biblical scholars are reminded that the Apostle John wrote at the end of his Gospel: "Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written." The authors believe that whether readers consider this unique treatment of the life and teachings of Jesus as entertaining fiction or as credible history, they will find the "greatest news stories from 7 BC to AD 30" engaging and instructive.
The "Chronicle of the Life and Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth" is available internationally in book stores through Ingram and on www.Amazon.com.
