This is the new official Schonfield Trust edition of the Passover Plot which is probably one of the most controversial books on the role of Jesus the Messiah. Yet to say that, might detract from its scholarly attention to detail and its furnishing of new insights into the character of the Man who changed the world so radically. Thus it is a 'must read' for those who are seeking a better understanding. Schonfield's aim in life was to build a bridge between peoples and he hoped that by digging into the facts behind the origins of Christianity, he would be able to uncover the real Messiah, misrepresented since time immemorial. His sincere desire was that this understanding would bring together those who had so long been divided. Whilst his thesis that Jesus plotted his own crucifixion may seem far-fetched or even offensive at first, seen in the light of John's Gospel and the thinking of the times it provides food for thought to those with an open mind. This edition intended for UK and Commonwealth readers, is set in Baskerville 10.5 pt for comfortable reading.

"Hugh Joseph Schonfield (London, 17 May 1901 - January 24, 1988, London) was a British Bible scholar specialising in the New Testament and the early development of the Christian religion and church. He was born in London, and educated there at St Paul's School and King's College, doing postgraduate religious studies in the University of Glasgow, Doctor of Sacred Literature. He was one of the founders and president of the pacifist organisation Commonwealth of World Citizens Mondcivitan Republic. At one time he was president of the H.G. Wells Society. He founded the Mondcivitan Republic, Commonwealth of World Citizens, in 1956. Schonfield was a liberal Hebrew Christian. In 1937 Schonfield was expelled from the Executive Committee of International Hebrew Christian Alliance (IHCA), of which he had been a member since 1925, (this organisation is now the International Messianic Jewish Alliance or IMJA). He later associated with Messianic Judaism for a while, but was bitterly disillusioned by the experience. Schonfield was one of the original Dead Sea Scrolls team members. (Extracted from Wikipedia)"
