Jesus of Nazareth, Savior and King: 414 Events in the Life of Christ

This appreciative work is loaded with historical notes which reflect the findings of recent scholarhip and the insights of modern scholars and certified Israeli tour guides concerning Christ's life and times. It treats the events of the Savior's life in a precise chronological order, period by period, with seasons, locations and tentative dating for every event. It cross-references each period to chapters (listed with titles and page numbers) in three major works on the life of Christ: Edersheim's The Life and Times of Jesus the messiah, Farrar's The Life of Christ, and Talmage's Jesus the Christ. This encourages and enables students to do more in-depth study based on the insights of these major scholarly works. It provides maps keyed to the numbered events in Christ's life and ministry. It lists and summarizes each of Jesus's 24 major discourses. It provides essential background information on Jewish and Roman customs and practices. It correlates 414 events in the Savior's ministry, showing the parallel references from each of the four gospels, and indicates which account is the most thorough and descriptive for each event. It provides numerous insights, presented in brief capsulized notes, which Bible Study, Sunday School, Seminary and Institute teachers can use to add meaning and sparkle to their lessons as they teach the New Testament and the Life of Christ. It's an excellent tool - both for personal study, for teaching, for missionaries, for Bible scholars and for everyone who wants to more fully understand the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth, Savior and King.
