This novel gains great tremendous intimacy in its Jewish telling, returning biblical figures to their cultural roots on the eve of a Christian era. In this story, Jesus is the mystic called Yeshua.
Lazarus' experience of death has left him fragile and unconfident, and his newfound fame is a
burden he does not want. Worse, his faith has been shattered because he remembers nothing of any
afterlife. In compelling flashbacks, we learn of Lazarus' initial meeting with Jesus - during their
boyhood in Nazareth - and discover how he came to earn his friend's trust and gratitude. He is
resurrected during what will come to be known as Passion Week, the final week of Jesus' life.
Lazarus wonders if his purpose is to save his beloved friend from crucifixion. But will Jesus accept
Lazarus' final sacrifice?
