There's no escaping it. From the outset of Christianity, Jesus was often portrayed like a pagan sun god who died and rose again, just like the sun, even in the earliest Gospels.
This connects him to the ancient traditions of sun worship that saturated the world before Christ, like those found in Egypt, Persia, India, Greece, and Rome, and to the even older Religion of the Sun that lies at the root of them all.
But how did a Jewish peasant from Galilee become "the light of the world"? And importantly, did Jesus make this connection himself?
To answer these questions, we plunge into the world of historical Jesus scholarship to explore some of the most intriguing mysteries about Jesus, such as:
Drawing on the latest in historical scholarship, the author reconstructs how the traditions of the Religion of the Sun did indeed weave their way into the very oldest records about Jesus and irreversibly impact Christianity, which preserves the memory of ancient "sun/son worship" up to this day. Through twist after turn, this inquiry leads to the unraveling of a thousands-year-old enigma.
An accessible and easy read for those wanting to explore the many spiritual mysteries about Jesus based on real historical evidence.
