Reviews

David Tombs adeptly expands the conversation he began years ago, laying bare the sexual violence Jesus experienced during his crucifixion. He stretches our historical imagination and broadens our sensibilities. Tombs demonstrates the truly scandalous aspects of Crucifixion endured by Jesus and others. Readers will tread the historical trajectory of such violence into the modern era. There is no rush to resurrection but it arrives. Tombs' book is a must-read for scholars, religious studies students and laypersons. Mitzi J Smith, J. Davison Philips Professor of New Testament, Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur, GA.
