The way of life at the time of the New
Testament is brought vividly to life in this
exciting new book.
Testament is brought vividly to life in this
exciting new book.
The book gives an excellent comprehensive and
detailed picture of life leading up to and during
the time of Christ. It contains historical,
geographical, social and cultural detail as well as
religious information, giving vital and fascinating
insights to the Gospel narratives, which bring the
teachings of Christ alive.
The writer has researched the material thoroughly
using the appropriate Hebrew words when
necessary to give greater understanding of the
text.
Non-biblical sources such as the The Talmud
and Mishnah are used to bring authenticity to the
subjects under discussion. These aspects are also
helpful in understanding the beliefs and practices
of modern day Jews. The book has a mixture of
illustrations about life in New Testament times.
There are maps, photographs of places
mentioned in The Gospels, archaeological finds
as well as artists' impressions of how people
lived, worked and died! All aspects of daily life
are included with the relevant biblical quotations
linking them to The Gospel narratives.
I would consider this book to be of use for
secondary pupils and upwards. It would be
particularly useful to anyone studying New
Testament themes for GCSE and 'A' level and
would be a helpful resource for anyone visiting
Israel on pilgrimage or as a tourist.
Highly recommended
