The gospel accounts of the birth and childhood of Jesus have
puzzling discrepancies and contradictions. In particular, Matthew
and Luke give different versions of the genealogy and birth of
Jesus, and of the events that follow. A long forgotten tradition
held that there were, in fact, two families and two Jesus children
whose destinies would come together: one from the kingly line of
Solomon, and the other from the priestly line of Nathan. There are
various apocryphal texts, as well as works of art, in which both
children clearly occur. Emil Bock shows how the pattern and
structure of the four gospels support the stories of two boys
called Jesus, living side by side in Nazareth until the age of
twelve, right up to the dramatic day of their visit to the temple
in Jerusalem. He also recreates the years between this time and
Jesus' baptism. This book is essential reading for every
Christology student, and for anyone who has ever wondered about the
gospel accounts of Jesus' birth.
