RARE German translation of "From Jesus to Paul" by the eminent Jewish historian and professor of Hebrew Literature Joseph Klausner (1874-1958), a sequel to an influential book about Jesus of Nazareth, which gained him fame, where he describes how Jesus is best understood as a Jew and Israelite who was trying to reform the religion, and died as a devout Jew.
