The King nobody wanted [antikvár]

ABOUT THIS BOOK In a very real and interesting way, The King Nobody Wanted tells the story of Jesus. Where the actual words of the Bible are used, they are from the King James Version. But the greater part of the story is told in the words of every day. Since you will certainly want to look up these stories in your own Bible, the references are given on pages 191 and 192. You will discover that often more than one Gospel tells the same story about Jesus, but in a slightly different way. In The King Nobody Wanted, the stories from the Gospels have been put together so that there is just one story for you to read and understand and enjoy. 1. Waiting Two THOUSAND years ago, in the land of Palestine, the Jewish people were waiting for something to happen—or, really, were waiting for someone to come. "When will he come?" was the question they were always asking one another. "Will he come in five years? next year? Or is he already on his way?" They were waiting for someone, and when he came they would call him "the Messiah." If they spoke the Greek language, they would call him "Christ." The people thought he would be a great king.
