The Carpenter's Tools (en Inglés) - Roger Amos

This book brings the gospel story to life - making the reader feel, as though present with Jesus, one of his disciples. Its novella-style approach blends the findings of recent historical research with the gospel accounts to show how the socio-economic circumstances of Herod Antipas' Galilee shaped Jesus' career. As various witnesses of Jesus' ministry narrate their individual experiences, providing a multi-faceted picture of the historical Jesus, the tension mounts, culminating in the often misunderstood Story of the Tenants, which sealed Jesus' fate. Interspersed humour and pathos add entertainment value and remind us that the gospel represents not simply divine intervention in human society, but God himself taking human form. Comprehensive endnotes and a bibliography allow readers to reference the author's historical sources and the reasoning underlying passages involving conjecture.
