Jesus of Nazareth was born in the humblest circumstances imaginable, but his life and death made him probably the most influential person who ever lived. The story of Jesus, as related in the Gospels, is depicted from his birth to his death. The well-known tale of his life, including his modest beginnings, his divine calling, his selection of his twelve disciples, his controversial and revolutionary teachings, his miraculous feats, his run-ins with the Roman and Jewish establishment in first-century Palestine, his betrayal by one of his closest followers, and his death and ultimate resurrection are all depicted.
