Product Description

New Light on the Difficult Words of Jesus: Insights from His Jewish Context

What if we could step back into the first-century world of Jesus and walk on a dusty road with him as one of his first Jewish disciples? Here we examine Jesus' lifestyle as a first-century Jewish rabbi and look at how his words would have been understood within the larger framework of first-century Judaism.

In this stimulating collection of writings, David Bivin will be your personal tour guide through the multi-hued Jewish landscape that frames the words of our Lord. His words will grow in clarity and depth when seen in the light of their original setting.

Very readable, but includes scholarly footnotes that make the book a valuable help to those who want to study in more depth.
