The Man Without A Name
In picking up this book, you must have felt intrigued by the flavour of mystery. Mostly, it is so. Who killed Kennedy? Who was King Arthur? Did Diana die by accident? They are ready instances – all Anglo-Saxon compulsions, but other nations and cultures have theirs. The pages you have in your hands provide answer to the greatest mystery of all. Vital, far-reaching and outstanding for almost 2000 years. Why was the tomb of Jesus found empty? Who was the unnamed man who wrote the gospel called ‘John’ – an account different to all the others? The most knowing. Jewish and giving a vitally different understanding. The flow of questions arising out of his almost contradictory account makes for an evermore intriguing quest. The conclusions for an answer to the mystery that has stood before everyone, for so long, as by far, the mightiest of all.
