This is a great book. The legal research to understand Jesus time is remarkable. His view about how the criminal process was handle and the details about all the main things against Jesus over the trial is outstanding. The exegetical points need to be review since there are a couple of historical moments some how misplaced. But still a great book to consider and analize the last days of Jesus.

The only thing that I may not agree is to blame guilty against romans exclusively for the death of Jesus, declaring inocent the jews. When you study scholars like G. Vermes, J. Fitzmyer, R. Brown and read works like F. Josephus, J. Jeremias you may understand and believe that there were many reasons for the Jews to get against Jesus. No doubt that romans killed him, dealing with other manners, but the more affected with Jesus ministry were the Jews. Sorry for this point, with all the respect that it deserves. Besides it, I recomended because the bookis full of details and quotes that you may find them insteresting.

The former Israeli judge offers a superlative analysis of the trial and eeath of Jesus, showing step by step what truly must have happened. He explains what the Jews could and could not have done, Jesus' position, and the implications of a trail and sentence on Passover. A must read.
