The setting and main plot line are familiar, but new characters have appeared and more recent events and developments are assumed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDid anyone record the episodes we missed?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFortunately a few did. Their reception wasn't always good, and there are annoying cuts and splices. But Anthony J. Tomasino has put together the missing episodes and skillfully retells the story of Judaism before Jesus, from the time of Ezra and Nehemiah to the Herods, and even up to Masada. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is an entertaining, informative and enlightening retelling of the story of Judaism and the development of the ideas, subplots and characters that shaped the world of Jesus and the first Christians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony J.
