A HISTORY OF THE MAN FROM ALEXANDRIA:
Who was Jesus? A bishop recently used His biography to illustrate an excellent theological point. He described Him as 'an uneducated man from Nazareth, son of a poor carpenter named Joseph who preached in several synagogues.'
The implicabon is that all the wisdom Jesus exhibits comes from God, who would have informed Him of modern technology. In contrast, Jesus demonstrates a detailed knowledge of Alexandrine's philosophy. Then why would a poor carpenter travel to Bethlehem to register for Roman taxabon? The Roman taxabon system depended upon idenbfying and grabbing a porbon of wealth.
In this book, we answer these problems by examining the New Testament and aeempbng to separate myth from history. We arrive at the almost inevitable conclusion that Jesus was the son of Joseph of Arimathea, a wealthy merchant of Alexandria. He received His educabon at the best insbtubons of the bme and married Mary Magdalene to qualify to speak in a synagogue.
We use the King James version's text and compare different accounts of the same incidents to see how the Chrisban Church came to be.
John Chapman was born in Birmingham, England, in 1935 and grew up mainly in Gloucestershire. He aeended Southampton University and gained an honors degree in mathemabcs with aeronaubcs but was seduced by the emerging computer technology.
Aier a spell in Northern Ireland, he moved to Toronto, where he worked for Ferranb-Packard with some of the brightest brains of the period and developed techniques for digibzing oil well logs to release fiiy-year-old data to computer technology.
He became a school inspector, served for nearly fiiy years as a local councilor, and became deeply immersed in local and military history as the author or coauthor of many books. He was also a leader in helping others, being the chairman of his local voluntary society for many years.
