''Rabbi Jesus: An Intimate Biography'' showed Jesus' development through the environments that proved formative influences on him. Those environments, illuminated by archaeology and by historical sources, include: (1) rural Jewish Galilee, (2) the movement of John the Baptist, (3) the towns Jesus encountered as a rabbi, (4) the political strategy of Herod Antipas, and (5) deep controversy concerning the Temple in Jerusalem. ==Popular books== *''Rabbi Jesus: An Intimate Biography'', Doubleday, 2000.
