Geza Vermes Knihy
Geza Vermes bol židovský maďarský učenec a spisovateľ zaoberajúci sa náboženskou históriou, najmä židovskou a kresťanskou.






Před necelými dvěma tisíci lety došlo k justiční vraždě židovského charismatika. Kolik toho však skutečně víme o Ježíšově umučení – o zatčení, soudním procesu a popravě místního svatého muže, jehož posmrtné působení lze srovnat snad jen s vlivem dvou či tří dalších postav lidských dějin? Na základě všech dostupných pramenů autor znovu zkoumá příběh skrytý pod nánosem úprav a nepochopení, aby se co nejvíce přiblížil skutečným událostem oněch osudných jeruzalémských dní. V roce 2009 vydalo nakladatelství Paseka knihu Ježíšovo narození a na podzim 2010 chystá vydání knihy Ježíšovo vzkříšení, čímž Vermesovu volnou „kristovskou“ trilogii uzavře. Geza Vermes (1924) je historik, judaista, znalec židovského prostředí a literatury přelomu letopočtu a zejména uznávaný odborník na Svitky od Mrtvého moře, jež jako první přeložil do angličtiny.
