The Nazarene presents a sweeping, glowing panorama of Jerusalem and the provinces nearly two thousand years ago, during the most dramatic period of human history. It recreates the splendors of the wealthy and the despair of the seething populace crushed under the iron hand of Rome. the dry dust of history is moulded again into life, and as we read we are ourselves living in the time, sensing every moment the colors, the sounds, and even the smells of reality, as we move through each successive scene.
