Jesus Video (Das Jesus Video in reissues) is a 1998 Science Fiction novel by German author Andreas Eschbach.During an archaeological excavation in Israel, American college student Stephen Foxx finds the skeleton of a man from the times of Jesus that carried a shocking item with him: the user manual of a modern digital video camera that will not be released until two years in the future. They conclude that the dead man was a time traveller from the future, who went back in time to film Jesus Christ himself, a discovery that could send shockwaves around the planet. The financier of the dig, media magnate John Kaun, initiates a search for the camera, which is also sought by the Catholic Church. Helped by Israeli student Judith Menez and her brother Yehoshuah, Stephen will be forced to participate in a dangerous race for the Jesus Video.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A best-seller in its second edition, the novel won the 1999 Kurd-Laßwitz Award and was loosely adapted in 2002 as a two-part TV movie, Das Jesus Video. A novel that acts as both a Prequel and a Sequel, Der Jesus-Deal, was released in 2014.

Corrupt Church: Scarfaro wants to destroy the camera and outright states that Jesus was a troublemaker in his time and that if he was alive today he would be hunted by the Church itself.

Jesus Was Way Cool: The novel obviously attacks modern organized religion and the Catholic Church in particular, but Jesus himself is said to be humble and deeply touching.

Sinister Minister: Unlike in the movie adaptation, Scarfaro is clearly a priest in the novel.

Demythification: Some compare the Jesus in the video to a plain, uninteresting rabbi.
