"A breathtaking, brilliant dash through twenty years of history, no holds barred, just the way it should be"
Nina Burleigh's book is the most in-depth telling of the police investigation and trial so far. She believes the ossuary and other items on the indictment are fakes
Victor Sasson, who appeared as a defense witness, turned the story of the ossuary trial into a scholarly detective novel
Hershel Shanks's book on the ossuary, written with Ben Witherington. Shanks was the first to publish the ossuary, in the Biblical Archeology Review in 2002. He is convinced it is authentic
A collection of essays published in 2009 and edited by Ryan Byrne and Bernadette McNary-Zak assumes from the start that the ossuary is a forgery. The research is sloppy - apparently based largely on press cuttings - and there are some woeful errors. Hershel Shanks is re-dubbed "Herschel"

Mr Kalman, Tabor and Jacobovici step in it again assuming Christianity instead of Judaism. Jonah was always a Torah/Judaic book. How could Jonah be a Christian? It is so out of time chronologically, anachronistic if you will. The scholars like James Parkes from Oxford understood that before 135CE it was a sect of Torah/Judaism in, "Conflict of the Church and Synagogue."
