Publisher Description: This uniquely insightful collection of stories is based on incidents or characters described in the Gospel narratives of the New Testament. They provide the reader with a clearer awareness of what was happening and a deeper understanding of the people involved. In particular they help the reader to see Jesus with greater vividness than ever before. Extremely well researched, they contain a wealth of detail about the political and religious intrigues of the time, and also give fascinating details of the everyday lives of the ordinary people living in First Century Palestine.. |
