This first historical fiction novel of the life events of Jesus and his wife includes information about these two individuals from their situations of conception, birth, and up to the age of ten years old. All of the information in telling their stories has been carefully researched from religious writings, the Bible, other ancient accurate sources from anthropology, historical writing from their contemporary time, and ancient new writing discoveries about these two remarkable people and their life. It follows a guided rabbinic principle known as the halakic principle, which sews their stories together with imagination and careful research by the author doing so in a consecutive, cohesive, and conceptual way for the twenty-first-century reader. The stories incorporate accurate human behavior and progression of their development, which has not changed for us from the time in which they lived. If you desire a more accurate, realistic account of the man whom we know as Jesus, and his wife whom we know as Miriam, or Mary Magdalene, you shall attain greater understanding of them and our own post-modern selves.
