How the book uses these sources
The events, places and words of this book come from these sources, all held in holy, the scripture library this book was written from; the plain physical texture the telling adds is named in the notes. The story is told from the Bible (the Berean Standard Bible, with its own marking of the words of Jesus). The world of the story comes from the reference works and Edersheim; how its details have been read, from the Fathers and Josephus. The sermons shaped which moments the story lingers on, and none is quoted.
