The death of Jesus is at the heart of the Gospel. You can read again the passion narrative with an exceptional guide, the great biblical scholar Raymond E. Brown, going through the forty stations of his major work:
The Death of the Messiah.

 

Another outstanding work by Raymond Brown on the infancy narratives of Jesus that analyzes chapters 1 and 2 of Matthew and Luke:
The Birth of the Messiah.

 

John P. Meier has left us this monumental five-volume work on the historical Jesus, which marks a milestone and has received worldwide critical acclaim. It is an essential work.
The Marginal Jew.
