In this book, controversial New Testament scholar Gerd Ludemann investigates all of the references to Jesus' birth and the Holy Family in the writings of the early church and rival Jewish sources. He discusses what the New Testament stories set out to say, reconstructs the traditions used in them, and answers the question of what really happened at Jesus' birth. Here, then, is an honest attempt to wrestle with the "virgin birth" and its validity, or lack thereof, based on historical evidence.

Gerd Ludemann is Professor of New Testament at the University of Gottingen and the author of Virgin Birth? The Real Story of Mary and Her Son Jesus, also published by Trinity Press. Martina Janssen is his academic assistant.
