The authors of two letters in the New Testament are considered by many to be the actual half-brothers of Jesus Christ. However we are told in the gospels that the family of Jesus approached Him at one point during His ministry asking Him to come home, thinking He was out of His mind (Mark 3:21). But how did Jesus's brothers go from being concerned about His sanity to being important contributors to the early church?

The Netzereth Trial suggests a possible series of events that happen around Jesus's brothers in Nazareth during Passion Week. While Jesus experiences a trial, death, and surprising triumph, His family in Nazareth experiences similar events that completely change the way they view their brother.

In this work of historical fiction the families of Nazareth believed they were of the line of King David and thus, the promised people of the "Branch" predicted in scripture. Therefore they named their town "Netzereth" from the Hebrew word for "branch", which is netzer.
