I found it interesting as another take on Roman history of this period. Only shortcoming I think by covering such a long time period and economic, social, religious and war events the author can't spend enough time on one event or topic so major events and figures only given in highlights. I did enjoy the different analysis of each gospel and bible book. Comparison of Mathew vs Luke or Mark and I didn't get any notion of the author confirming his belief or outright opposing all belief. Very objective take on the historicity of events. I believe this book is good but requires previous knowledge of the events or further reading after this book to truly understand all the facets of such an amazing time period
