Jesus has been the source of faith to billions, the cause of a thousand wars, and the subject of countless works of art and music. But who was he - a rebel, a prophet or something much more?

Join experts as they reconstruct the life of Jesus using archaeology, history and science. For the first time, experts strip away the layers of history that cover almost every biblical site, revealing the Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth that Jesus himself would have known.

One of the experts is Prof. Rachel Havrelock, at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Another is Prof. Byron McCane , Chair of the Department of Religion at Wofford College, Spartanburg, SC.
