The Last Days of Jesus

His Life and Times

De: Bill O'Reilly

Narrado por: Edward Herrmann

Two thousand years ago, Jesus walked across Galilee; everywhere he traveled he gained followers. His contemporaries are familiar historical figures: Julius Caesar, Caesar Augustus, Herod the Great, Pontius Pilate. It was an era of oppression, when every man, woman, and child answered to the brutal rule of Rome. In this world, Jesus lived, and in this volatile political and historical context, Jesus died—and changed the world forever. Adapted from Bill O'Reilly's bestselling historical thriller Killing Jesus, and richly illustrated, The Last Days of Jesus is a riveting, fact-based account of the life and times of Jesus.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A condensed version of O'Reilly's bestselling adult book Killing Jesus.School Library Journal” —School Library Journal

“This distillation of the best-selling Killing Jesus: A History (2013) retains the original's melodramatic tone and present-tense narration.” —Kirkus Reviews

“A thoroughly documented, visually rich presentation.” —Kirkus Reviews on Kennedy's Last Days

“All the suspense and drama of a popular thriller.” —Husna Haq, The Christian Science Monitor on Killing Kennedy

“Immersively written . . . Mr. O'Reilly and Mr. Dugard succeed in investing a familiar national tragedy with fresh anguish . . . A powerful historical précis.” —Janet Maslin, The New York Times on Killing Kennedy

“This thrillerlike adaptation captures the excitement of the Union victory in the Civil War and the shock and horror that quickly followed as the country learned of Lincoln's death and sought revenge on his assassins. The popularity of O'Reilly's adult title will drive interest in this version, but it definitely stands alone and will find an audience among general readers and report writers.” —School Library Journal on Lincoln's Last Days

“Accessible to younger readers.” —Booklist on Lincoln's Last Days

“If Grisham wrote a novel about April 1865 . . . it might well read like Killing Lincoln.” —Peter J. Boyer, Newsweek on Killing Lincoln

“[Killing Lincoln] delivers a taut, action-packed narrative with cliff-hangers aplenty.” —The Christian Science Monitor on Killing Lincoln

“[Killing Lincoln] is nonfiction, albeit told in white-knuckled, John Grisham-like style.” —The New York Post on Killing Lincoln

Easy listening and informative

I enjoyed this book. I learned things I did not know. The information was interesting and brought questions to mind.

well done

I enjoyed the details regarding the political backdrop. there are Roman Catholic overtones which cloud some of the narrative but overall extremely accurate.

The story of Jesus from a secular approach.

The insiders view of Jesus experiencing the human struggle from the basement of civilization. Wonderfully unbiased.

Great story

Everyone knows the story but this gives the details and facts. Very entertaining and easy to follow

The Details

The Power of Christ and Christianity are clearly spoken…Embrace these details and feel the very essence of The Last Days
Of Jesus…

The sermon on the mount

I just completed listening to Bill O’Rielly’s audio book Killing Jesus. I found it to be extremely inspirational. While it was generally Biblically accurate the embellishment by the authors Bill O’Rielly and Martin Duggard made it very interesting to listen to.

Catholics continued Christ's church?

Given Oreiley's a Catholic, his statement that the church is a continuation of the teaching of the apostles has never been historically sound. Roman leader Constatine organized the apostate bishops and created non biblical creeds. Many corrupt Popes who it is supposed that they continued the priesthood is also not believable. God would not vest adulterous Popes as his true church. Not a chance OReily.
