Simon Sebag-Montefiore is Jewish and his great Uncle was Sir Moses Montefiore he is one of my Cousins. I am familiar with the history of the Sebag-Montefiore family.

Looking forward to reading my Cousin's book. I will go to the library and read it and of course buy it later on as some stores have it on backorder.

Awesome and full of drama book! Excellent writing and very powerful story on God,His people and His city, Jerusalem. I am an author myself, published my first book, Honor Thy God, in 2010 and wished I could write like him. Mr. Montefiore did a great job with his captivating account of Jerusalem's history. The story is well written and so dramatic, its like watching a movie. I loved it.

@rdowney14 So I should just take it back and exchange it for a bible? What version would you recommend? I know KJV is popular, but NIV sure is a lot easier to read.

Mr. Montefiore pretty much stayed with the facts until he felt a need to interpret the Gospel accounts of Jesus and his teachings. Then he veered into unsupported speculation about what did or did not occur. He had independent writings to help him fill in the blanks until Jesus. Unwilling to accept what is written in the Gospels as fact, he taints his story with his suppositions and demonstrates his lack of knowledge of the New Testament.
Save your money. Don't buy it.

I wonder if he used Karen Armstrong's book on Jerusalem as an example...

The first 1/2 of this book could be written by a gap year student using wikipedia. Terrible, terrible, simplistic and often outright inaccurate history written, evidently, in a great hurry.
I'd read anything by him, but he far more comfortable on heavily sourced 20th century material than ancient history.
