We and J.Z. accompany Jesus on extended road trips. We travel around (and on) the Sea of Galilee in the early decades of the first century following a familiar story from a perspective that never was. The hilarious commentary is unmoored in time. The author portrays his cousin as an attractive, talented healer and magician, fully flawed as are we all. His aunt, Mary, who opens the book, is divine. The use and abuse of language provide a laugh-a-line that will resonate with young readers, and indeed readers of all ages, for whom the stilted wording of St. James, and the archaic images of the New Testament, alienate potential fans of Jesus.The irreverent telling is respectful, eccentric, and, although outrageous, preserves the core of Christ's ministry and miracles.
