Tara Westover, Author Of EducatedThe Depth Of Spirituality She Uncovers Is Profound. The New York Times Book Reviewearly In Her Career, Elaine Pagels Changed Our Understanding Of The Origins Of Christianity With Her Work In The Gnostic Gospels. Now, In The Culmination Of A DecadesLong Career, She Explores The Biggest Subject Of All, Jesus. In Miracles And Wonder She Sets Out To Discover How A Poor Young Jewish Man Inspired A Religion That Shaped The World.The Book Reads Like A Historical Mystery, With Each Chapter Addressing A Fascinating Question And Answering It Based On The Gospels JesusS Followers Left Behind. Why Is Jesus Said To Have Had A Virgin Birth? Why Do We Say He Rose From The Dead? Did His Miracles Really Happen And What Did They Mean?The Story Pagels Tells Is Thrilling And Tense. Not Just Does Jesus Comes To Life But His Desperate, Hunted Followers Do As Well. We Realize That Some Of The Most Compelling Details Of JesusS Life Are The Explanations His Disciples Created To Paper Over Inconvenient Facts. So Jesus WasnT Illegitimate, His Mother Conceived By God; JesusS Body WasnT Humiliatingly Left To Rot And Tossed Into A Common GraveNo, He Rose From The Dead And Was Seen Whole By His Followers; Jesus IsnT A Failed Messiah, His Kingdom Is A Metaphor: He Lives In Us. These Necessary Fabrications Were The Very Details And Promises That Electrified Their Listeners And Helped His Followers Numbers Grow.In Miracles And Wonder, Pagels Does More Than Solve A Historical Mystery. She Sheds Light On JesusS Enduring Power To Inspire And Attract.
