This study integrates Bulgakov's Jerusalem Narrative with all the themes of The Master and Margarita to discover what the author believes is Bulgakov's message in the novel. It explains the content and function of the four Jerusalem Chapters and shows that they are an essential part of the novel's theme. The study makes the chapters that rework the Gospels more intelligible for English readers.
