Description

What if the original teachings of Jesus were different from the Bible's sanitized 'orthodox' version?

What covert motivations might inspire those who decide what the text of the Bible 'says' or what it 'means'?

For some who ask conspiratorial questions like these, the Bible is the vulnerable victim of secular forces seeking to divest the USA of its founding identity.

For others, the biblical canon suppresses religious truths that could upend the status quo.

Such suspicions surrounding the Bible find full expression in Gospel Thrillers: a 1960s fictional genre that endures and still commands a substantial following.

These novels imagine a freshly discovered first-century gospel and a race against time to unlock its buried secrets.

They also reflect the fears and desires that the Bible continues to generate. Andrew Jacobs reveals, in his authoritative examination, how this remarkable fictional archive opens a window onto disturbing biblical anxieties.
