The activities of Jesus before the start of his ministry at the age
of thirty have been the subject of much speculation. Did he travel
beyond the bounds of Palestine in his search for wisdom knowledge?
Where did he acquire the great learning which amazed those who
heard him preaching and enabled him to cross swords in debate with
Scribes and Pharisees? A number of legends suggest that Jesus
travelled to the British Isles with Joseph of Arimathea, who worked
in the tin trade. With these legends as his starting point, Gordon
Strachan uncovers a fascinating network of connections between the
Celtic world and Mediterranean culture and philosophy. Taking the
biblical image of Wisdom as the 'master craftsman', Strachan
explores the deep layers of Mystery knowledge shared between the
Judaic-Hellenic world and the northern Druids -- from the secret
geometry of masons and builders, which Jesus would have encountered
in his work as a craftsman in Palestine, to the Gematria or number
coding of the Old and New Testaments. This book is the basis of the
film documentary 'And Did Those Feet' which screened at the BFI in
London in 2010.
