The Resurrection of Jesus the Jew, by Peter Keenan

My friend, Peter Keenan, has recently written a fascinating trilogy on the Birth, Death and Resurrection of Jesus. The last one of the trilogy, under the above title, has just been published by Columba Books.

I publish here the press release that goes with the publication. It makes for a fascinating read.
