Over sixty thousand books about Jesus Christ were published in the 20th century alone. But among them there were almost no works about his trial - about this most important court hearing in the history of mankind. Many versions, evidence, hypotheses related to this event arose among Jews. The Jews, among whom Jesus lived, was “filled with wisdom,” preached and died, created their own versions of what happened among their people almost two thousand years ago. Why was Jesus tried at night? Why was he handed over to Pilate in the morning? Why didn't Pilate want to execute him? Why did the judges of the Temple insist on execution? How did Jews and Christians diverge in history, filled with hostility, often taking the form of mortal hatred? All this is told in the book of the Israeli historian, journalist and writer Michael Kheifetz “The Trial of Jesus (Jewish versions and hypotheses).”< /p>
