Recent discoveries, space-age technology and leading biblical scholars shed new light on the man who came to be called savior. He is perhaps the most famous man who ever lived. But it is possible he never lived at all.

Jesus Christ left a legacy of love, yet some of history's worst atrocities have been committed in his name. And much of what we think we know about Jesus is the result of assumptions and tradition, not historical fact. Some may find THE UNKNOWN JESUS disturbing and even heretical, but this fearless BIOGRAPHY® probes the truth about the man that millions believe was the Son of God.

It starts with the basics - His name - and even there the problem is clear, for archeological evidence proves that Nazareth did not exist until three centuries after His death, and Christ (from the Greek word for the savior) was added to His name long after His death. With the help of scholars like Hershel Shanks, editor of the Biblical Archeology Review and author Holger Kersten (The Jesus Conspiracy), we'll trace the origins of the stories of Jesus that have come down to today. And we'll examine the latest discoveries and theories that are challenging many long-held assumptions about Jesus.

Armed with ancient sources like the Dead Sea Scrolls, the papyrus books at Nag Hammadi, and long overlooked writings from the early church, modern scholars are making an impact with new theories on the most important figure of the Western World.
