Joshuah Ben Ya'akob Ben Gennesaret , better known to the world as Jesus Christ, is sitting alone in a small candle lit room high on the plateau of Masada during the mass suicide of 73AD. Old, tired and distraught that his people should be driven to this bloody end the octogenarian commits the story of his turbulent life to parchment. He tells of his childhood and the ministry that took Palestine by storm, his failure to ignite rebellion against the Roman occupation, how he cheated death on the cross, and his travels into northwest India before returning to Masada to die. This fictional autobiography relates a tale of hope, triumph, love, violence and finally regret from a failed prophet whose all consuming love for his God brought light and healing to thousands but ultimately destroyed his life.
