The Jesus Mysteries

SYNOPSIS

This special explores the many mysteries surrounding the figure of Jesus, as well as examining the meaning and purpose of his life.
Jesus Christ is one of the most famous names in the history of mankind. He is the core of belief for millions of Christians worldwide and his story has provided rich material for thousands of books and films. But the Gospel writers don't tell us much about his life, and even crucial events like the Nativity, the Miracles and even the Crucifixion have been adapted, embellished and rewritten over the course of hundreds of years. The Jesus Mysteries will re-examine the crucial elements of his story and question basic modern assumptions to reveal some surprising and often shocking details about his life and ministry.
