Theckedath M Mathew MD, has written a book called Joshua the Odyssey of an Ordinary Man. The book is a novel and its focus is on the most talked about man in human history, Jesus Christ. Even though the name Yeshua was later translated to Jesus, we are talking about the same person. It is important to remember that even though languages and translations change, the person is always the same.
Those interested in knowing everything about Jesus of Nazareth will be very interested in this book. The book concentrates on times of Jesus life that are not mentioned in the bible. If a person ever wondered what led up to the Jesus that we are familiar with, they will definitely want to read this book.
During Jesus time here on earth, his followers believed that he was the long awaited for messiah. They, as well as all believers of Christ thereafter, believe that he lived and died so that mankind can have a chance of having eternal life with the Lord. There have always been critics to Jesus teachings though. Some have even said that Joshua was nothing more than a common criminal. This can be very offensive to hear for some Christians.
The book focuses on trying to find out exactly who Joshua was. The author investigates everything about this man. He went on a quest to find out what was the truth and what wasn't. Everyone has thought of errors that could have been made when the bible was written. Some have wondered if the words in the bible were actually written from God's inspiration or if they were written by just regular men. It has also come to thought that there could be missing portions of the bible that nobody knows about. This could have a negative affect on what a person's belief is as they are not getting the whole story.
In this book, the author will point out to its readers how the bible is filled with myths and how there are actually lots of pages that are missing from it. The main point of the book is to find out more about Joshua and learn about the eighteen years of his life that are not accounted for in the bible. Many may wonder if he lived a normal life like most people do. Did he partake in marriage and have any children? Did he have any teachers who taught him what he knew? What other lands did he travel to besides the ones mentioned in the bible?
When talking about Joshua, it is not in the way that people are used of. Things are mentioned about woman rights and how Jesus was the first in the bible to stand up for women. This is well known by Christians and other faiths who know the story of the lady that all the men wanted to stone in the middle of the street for committing adultery.
Many will disagree with lots of points the author makes and may become angry. Others, may agree and be glad that someone is shedding some light on the truth. Either way, anyone who has a keen interest in Jesus will love reading this book.
Anyone who loves a good book will want to read Joshua the Odyssey of an Ordinary Man. It is not a Christian book that was made for Christians. Christians and anyone else who loves to learn about history and other people's opinions will find this book a pleasant read.
