David Kossoff creates a fresh view of the events in the New Testament by retelling the story as it could have been viewed by an eyewitness. His skills as a story teller make the book a very valuable tool for use with childrens lituries.

I had seen the author on a morning TV show as he read the story he had written about the guest at the Cana Wedding. I read a library copy of the book and some years later after failing to find a copy I wrote to him asking where I could find one. He wrote me a very beautiful and heartwarming letter and sent a copy as a gift to our son on his Ordination to the Priesthood. I have read these stories many times, over and over, and whenever I hear the reading of the occasion in the biblical story I am reminded of the tenderness his storytelling.

an excellent read. gives a wonderful perspective on the life of Christ from the passer-by's perspective.
