Zealot by Resa Aslan

Aslan did extensive research to provide a possibility of a political Jesus. He even provides a rational explanation for the reporting of the "miracles".  It provides an interesting historical perspective on the friction between Roman rule in the biblical Middle East and the need for a charismatic political rebel.  Like most books on this subject, some will find this interesting history and others will find it heretical.
