Jerusalem as Jesus Knew it. Archaeology as Evidence

London England: Thames & Hudson Ltd, 1988. Paperback. Jerusalem as Jesus Knew It. In this lucid and scholarly guide to the sites in and around Jerusalem that legitimately can be linked to Jesus, the author provides not only the details of where events took place, but analyzes the reasons for their occurence, drawing on research that combines a first-hand knowledge of archaeological discoveries with an interpretation of the Gospels and other ancient sources. Beginning with a brief look at Galilee, the life and traditions in the village of Nazareth and the site at Capernaum, where Jesus may well have visited and preached, the author then evaluates the cultural conflict of the Jews in Judaea, and the political position of Jerusalem in Jesus' day, when Pilate was governor. A plan pf Jerusalem as it was then makes it possible to visualize the layout of the ancient city, while diagrams and photographs pinpoint the scenes of many New Testament events.
