Barabbas - E-book - ePub

Roman Judea seethed with discontent. Devout Jews prayed for the long-awaited Messiah. Zealots plotted violence, convinced that their savior would take the throne through a bloody revolution. In a dark dungeon, Barabbas awaited a slow and painful death on a Roman cross. Told against the historic backdrop of first century Judea, "Barabbas" gives a plausible journey of tragedy, revenge, desperation, and surprising redemption.
The mob demanded that Pontius Pilate release the criminal Barabbas and condemn the innocent Jesus of Nazareth. Very little is known about the man whose place on the cross was taken by Jesus. This is his story.
