Not a badly written story but definitely a secular retelling of the story of Mary and Joseph. I had a hard time with Berg's portrayal of Joseph as a man who right up until his death didn't believe in his son's divinity or that his wife truly gave birth as a virgin.

Read over the holidays and enjoyed it for its many historical tidbits, but also quite entertaining and touching!

Very intimate experience showing the love and contentment of Jesus's earthly parents, Mary and Joseph. Jesus was one of many children and Joseph was skeptical of Mary's love in the beginning but in time, this became something that didn't matter in their relationship. Very good book on the the romance of his parents!
