The Last Days of Jesus: A Study of Mark 14-15

By Christopher Huggett

Christian tradition draws its understanding of the last days of Jesus by conflating and harmonising the four canonical gospels. In doing so it creates a false picture which owes much more to Christian theology than to history. Mark's narrative on which the other three accounts are based is itself heavily influenced by the competing theologies and political allegiances of its time. It combines a tripartite central narrative with other traditions and individual stories to create a continuous account.

Revd Huggett analyses and comments on these separate narratives and looks behind the storyline to discover the underlying historical events. His conclusions are startling and significant, enabling the reader to understand more clearly both the Christian tradition and the events on which it is founded.
