{"product_id":"the-syrian-christ-son-of-the-east-9781478286165","title":"The Syrian Christ: Son of The East","description":"\u003cb\u003eJESUS\u003c\/b\u003e is a mysterious figure in a historical sense. All that we know about him comes mainly from \u003cb\u003eGospels\u003c\/b\u003e and the \u003cb\u003eKoran\u003c\/b\u003e. Two thousand years ago, at the time he is said to have lived, \u003cb\u003eSyria\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003ePalestine\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eJerusalem\u003c\/b\u003e were all part of the \u003cb\u003eRoman Empire\u003c\/b\u003e. Yet no Roman record exists that can bear witness, directly or indirectly, to the Gospel story of Jesus. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Even more surprising is the absence of any reference to \u003cb\u003eJesus\u003c\/b\u003e in the writings of \u003cb\u003eJewish\u003c\/b\u003e authors living at that period in \u003cb\u003eJerusalem\u003c\/b\u003e or \u003cb\u003eAlexandria\u003c\/b\u003e, although we know from \u003cb\u003eTalmudic\u003c\/b\u003e writings that the \u003cb\u003eJews\u003c\/b\u003e did know of \u003cb\u003eJesus\u003c\/b\u003e, even if they refused to accept that he was either the \u003cb\u003eMessiah (Christ)\u003c\/b\u003e or descended from the \u003cb\u003eHouse of David\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As a result, some authors have concluded that \u003cb\u003eJesus\u003c\/b\u003e never lived, but was an ancient mythological figure, adapted later as a historical figure. On the other hand, thousands of authors have written books about \u003cb\u003eJesus\u003c\/b\u003e as a real person with some claiming to be giving accounts of the \u003cb\u003ehistorical Christ\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbraham Rihbany's Jesus\u003c\/b\u003e is real. According to \u003cb\u003eRihbany\u003c\/b\u003e's account, \u003cb\u003eJesus\u003c\/b\u003e was a \u003cb\u003eSyrian\u003c\/b\u003e and never saw any other country than \u003cb\u003ePalestine\u003c\/b\u003e. There he was born; there he grew up to manhood, taught his Gospel, and died for it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From the fact that he was born not far from where the \u003cb\u003eMaster\u003c\/b\u003e was born, and brought up under almost the identical conditions under which he lived, \u003cb\u003eRihbany\u003c\/b\u003e offers an \u003cb\u003einsider view to the Bible\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eRihbany\u003c\/b\u003e's insights manages to throw fresh light on the life and teachings of \u003cb\u003eChrist\u003c\/b\u003e, and other portions of the \u003cb\u003eBible\u003c\/b\u003e whose correct understanding depends on accurate knowledge of their original environment.
