A journalist in pursuit of the greatest event in history.
Are there any credible historical arguments demonstrating that Jesus of Nazareth is truly the Son of God?
Award-winning and adapted into a top-10 box-office hit, this best-selling novel traces the quest for truth by veteran journalist—and skeptic—Lee Strobel about one of history's most influential figures: Jesus Christ. An investigation that will test the reliability of historical sources for his teachings, his life and resurrection, the plausibility of what we know—or think we know—about him, and much more! This search for objective and reliable facts has led the author to the most eminent specialists in every field: history, archaeology, epigraphy, psychology, medicine, philosophy, and more.
This demanding and passionate investigation resulted in a rigorous but entirely accessible and captivating book, which has become over the years a reference on the subject, having impacted the lives of nearly 5 million people across the world... starting with that of its author, who became a pastor and teacher of apologetics.
Completely revised and expanded, this new edition includes:
- An additional chapter, in which the author returns to this historical investigation, which is also a personal quest, its influence since its publication and his responses to the criticisms it has raised.
- An update by the author of the information taking into account archaeological and epigraphic discoveries as well as specialist publications published since the first edition in 1998.
- The original sources are now fully specified.
And you, what will be your verdict after reading Jesus the Investigation?
