«L'homme qui devint Dieu» is the historical novel by Gerald Messadié, published by Robert Laffont in paperback (611 pages, in French).
A Catholic, believing writer rereads the canonical Gospels and clashes with their gaps and contradictions. His research expands to the apocryphal gospels, the Gospel of Thomas, the Dead Sea Scrolls and archaeology, until he reconstructs a story of Jesus that no one had written. The narrative explores his youth, his closeness to the Essenes and the reasons for his condemnation by the Sanhedrin, against the backdrop of Roman-occupied Palestine.
First volume of Gerald Messadié's series on Jesus; this original French edition was published in 1988.
Recommended for readers interested in well-documented historical novels about Jesus, early Christianity and first-century Palestine.
