The Young Messiah (Movie tie-in) (originally published as Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt): A Novel

SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
Â
With the Holy Land in turmoil, seven-year-old Jesus and his family leave Egypt for the dangerous road home to Jerusalem. As they travel, the boy ponders the mysteries surrounding his birth. Anne Riceâ€™s dazzling, kaleidoscopic novel, based on the gospels and the most respected New Testament scholarship, summons up the voice, the presence, and the words of Jesus, allowing him to tell his own story as he struggles to grasp the holy purpose of his life.
