Reading and Writing in the Time of Jesus
Author: Allan Millard
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 9780567083487
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Jesus never wrote a book. Most scholars assume that information about Jesus was preserved only orally up until the writing of the Gospels, allowing ample time for the stories of Jesus to grow and diversify. Alan Millard here argues that written reports about Jesus could have been made during his lifetime and that some among his audiences and followers may very well have kept notes, first-hand documents that the Evangelists could weave into their narratives.

Palestine
Author: Nur Masalha
Publisher: Zed Books Ltd.
ISBN: 1786992752
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This rich and magisterial work traces Palestine's millennia-old heritage, uncovering cultures and societies of astounding depth and complexity that stretch back to the very beginnings of recorded history. Starting with the earliest references in Egyptian and Assyrian texts, Nur Masalha explores how Palestine and its Palestinian identity have evolved over thousands of years, from the Bronze Age to the present day. Drawing on a rich body of sources and the latest archaeological evidence, Masalha shows how Palestine’s multicultural past has been distorted and mythologised by Biblical lore and the Israel–Palestinian conflict. In the process, Masalha reveals that the concept of Palestine, contrary to accepted belief, is not a modern invention or one constructed in opposition to Israel, but rooted firmly in ancient past. Palestine represents the authoritative account of the country's history.

The Literature and History of New Testament Times
Author: J. Gresham Machen
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
This book is a course to introduce students to Christianity. The general purpose of this course has been clarified in the introduction to the student textbook. The modern church has a tendency to ignore the study of biblical history. Such negligence will inevitably lead to the loss of power. The gospel is a record of what has happened, and uncertainty about the gospel is a fatal weakness. For teachers and students, the most fundamental thing is to understand the facts of the Bible in an orderly manner.
