This time, the popular American writer focused on a historical theme based on the Gospels and the New Testament. Seven-year-old Jesus leaves Egypt with his family to travel back home to Jerusalem. During the journey, Jesus has time to think about the strangeness and mysteries associated with his birth, and through his reflection and development, the reader slowly follows Jesus' transformation into a religious divine form.
The engaging historical novel became the model for the film version of the same name, and through the narration of Jesus himself, his extraordinary life story is revealed. The novel is the introduction to the upcoming tetralogy Christ TheLord.
