Archaeologists and leading New Testament expert Ben Witherington III reveal here what the discovery means for understanding the Bible and also what it shows about the family of Jesus and the earliest Christians and fundamental beliefs held by the Church today. 223 pages. 6.25 x 9.5 inches. 2003, HarperCollins Publisher, USA
