Prof Sir Fergus Millar is Camden Professor of Ancient History Emeritus, in the University of Oxford, UK. Geza Vermes was Professor Emeritus of Jewish Studies at the University of Oxford, UK and was one of the worlds greatest experts on the historical Jesus, Christian beginnings, and the Dead Sea Scrolls. With the publication of Jesus the Jew (1973) he introduced the idea of Jesus as a 1st century Jewish holy man to the general public. His book The Dead Sea Scrolls in English (1962) introduced the English reader to the Scrolls, going on to sell over half a million copies.
