Book
Jesus of Nazareth : from the baptism in the Jordan to the transfiguration / by Joseph Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI ; translated from the German by Adrian J. Walker.
In this bold, momentous work, the Pope--his first book written as Benedict XVI--seeks to salvage the person of Jesus from recent "popular" depictions and to restore Jesus' true identity as discovered in the gospels. Through his brilliance as a theologian and his personal conviction as a believer, the Pope shares a rich, compelling, flesh-and-blood portrait of Jesus and incites us to encounter, face-to-face, the central figure of the Christian faith.
