The Authentic New Testament

by Hugh J. Schonfield

Here is a modern translation of the New Testament which sheds light on the life, ministry and death of Jesus Christ. Dr. Hugh J. Schonfield, the brilliant Jewish scholar, has brought together all the information unearthed by historians and archaeologists - including the Dead Sea Scrolls - and weighed it carefully against his extensive knowledge of the ancient Aramaic, Hebrew and Greek documents. His vivid, readable translation and helpful explanatory notes capture the authentic atmosphere of Biblical times and brings the modern reader closer to the people, the country and the period.
