N2  - Jesus and History examines the historical background of the four Gospels. Can we identify their authors and dates, or were they later forgeries? Are the people and places in the Gospels historical or mythological? -- Did Jesus do the miracles and make the claims attributed to him, or did early Christians exaggerate his life? Who is he? Also, included in the appendix is rare historical research on abortion in the ancient world and the response by the first Christians: Outside the Heavenly City; Abortion in Rome and the Early Church's Response. - Back cover
