• Trial of Jesus ("..we published a copy of the death warrant of Jesus Christ taken from a newspaper slip found pasted in an old Bible printed in 1822.

This plate was said to have been found in an...")

• The Trial of Jesus ("..There is so much mysticism and confusion surrounding the crucifixion and resurrection that we lose sight of the fact that Jesus of Nazareth was a man tried before a court of men under laws of men, that he was convicted and executed as a man, and that for sheer drama the trial of Jesus surely matches any of the great courtroom stories in the history of human justice.
