An immediate consequence of this format is that it establishes a rigorous framework for an objective assessment of the level of consistency between the Gospels.
This chronological framework also allows for a natural exploration of the priorities and personalities of the Gospel writers in their quest to portray their central character, Jesus of Nazareth. As part of the author's commitment to retaining as much of the context of Roman-ruled Israel of the 1st century as possible, he refers to Jesus of Nazareth as Y'shua and has insisted on immersing him fully into the traditions of his Jewish roots.
What emerges is a fascinating insight into Y'shua's 2000 year old diary and the secrets it reveals about his complex identity.
"A thoroughly interesting read which presents a fascinating and refreshing angle on a topic well worth investigating. One is left with a sense of having visited with real people in a real context and experiencing the unfolding of real events. This certainly makes for enlightening and enjoyable reading, with plenty of room for further discovery."
