Today is the US launch of Josephus and Jesus: New Evidence for the One Called Christ (Oxford). The book, however, is already SOLD OUT! Oxford is printing new copies. Due to a generous donor, you can get a free digital copy at josephusandjesus.com
My Josephus and Jesus book is now freely available on archive.org

John Miller writes: "Think of it as a reversal of “The Da Vinci Code.” Instead of a bestselling novel by Dan Brown that presents make-believe research to dispute the story of Jesus, a professor of religious studies has written a work of genuine scholarship that affirms Christian traditions with a new interpretation of an ancient text."
