Originally published in 1940, this book presents a revised chronology of the public ministry of Jesus in the light of revisions made to previously accepted dates pertaining to the birth and crucifixion of Christ. Ogg examines the evidence supplied by the Gospels as well as later Christian tradition to arrive at a rough outline of Christ's ministry and the conclusion that the crucifixion occurred in April of 33 AD. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Christology and in the historical person of Jesus.
