Reviews
'There is much to be commended in this book. Jesus and the Temple is a very readable and well-researched investigation into the circumstances of Jesus's death. ... an engaging read and one full of tantalizing possibilities. Joseph's arguments deserve to be taken seriously by anyone interested in the study of the historical Jesus and the question of why he died.' Timothy Wardle, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
'... this is an excellent scholarly work on the historical Jesus and an insightful resource for both undergraduate and graduate courses on the topic.' Yongbom Lee, Horizons
