"It was my privilege to receive a copy of the book "The Ten Last Days of Jesus" by David Levandusky. In my opinion, any student of God's Word would benefit from this remarkable tool. It clarifies the final days of Christ in a very simple, graphic and profound way. I believe many will use this special gift to the church of Jesus Christ." Pastor Barry Warren, Pastor of the Greenfield Missionary and Alliance Church, Greenfield, Ma. "Imagine your family sitting in your living room sharing stories of a loved one who had passed away. Each memory shared would be accurate but told through the lens of the individual telling it and as each person shares, a whole picture of the loved one emerges, more complete than any one individual's picture. Similarly, each Gospel writer gives a unique snapshot of Jesus. Pastor Levandusky has done us a great favor by putting the Gospel stories of the most important ten days of the life of Jesus into such a perspective." Pastor Larry Riddle, Pastor of Moores Corner Church, North Leverett, Ma. for 32 years. 1978 - Present. "My dear brother has written an intricate and detailed book of the Last Ten Days of Jesus life that will be a most welcome addition to all Pastors libraries and to the serious student of its word. It is an exhaustive work that required much time and labor and I commend my brother in this fine work."

His contemporaries are familiar historical figures: Julius Caesar, Caesar Augustus, Herod the Great, Pontius Pilate.

In this world, Jesus lived, and in this volatile political and historical context, Jesus died—and changed the world forever.
