I already knew Mr. Bernheim for hearing in the Arte documentary on early Christianity, and it was with surprise that I discovered this book written by her. We find the same quality of analysis of the historian, by adopting a more neutral and objective approach as possible, while reframing the facts in their historical context. With few sources available to us, it's very hard work! The explanations are fluid in their unfolding and we understand. However, with the amount of information to take in, this book deserves to be read a second time.
For those who want to know the conditions in which Christianity began, this book is essential reading!
