Historical Atlas and Chronology of the Life of Jesus Christ: A Text Book and Companion to a Harmony of the Gospels (Classic Reprint)

Christ which have been, developed in the class-room in the effort to teach our Lord slife as a history. The historical maps locate in order the principal events of Jesus Hfe, and are designed for memory pictures. Every map exhibits a different journey and each event is recorded as near its proper place as can be determined. Only the towns, provinces, streams and mountains that are directly involved in the history of Jesus life are represented. For typographical convenience the Mount of Beatitudes is placed a little to the north of the spot generally favored. The chronological table gives all of the reasonably certain years, seasons, months, days, and hours of Jesus life, and.supplements the maps in geographical detail. The third exhibit proposes an analysis of Jesus ministry based upon his method of work, by recognizing periods, indicated by Jesus himself in the successive stages by which he organized his disciples, and which he invariably punctuated with one of his great discourses. Analyses are given which show the character of each period, and trace the developments, crises and consummations that unfold the plans and purpose of his ministry. The book is best used with a Harmony of the gospels. It will accompany any of the standard works, by Broadus, Stevens and Burton, Riddle, or Robinson, and will not be found to vary from the order of events followed by any of these editors excepting in the few and generally unimportant particulars where they vary from each other. The table of passages according to the general divisions of the life of Christ adopted in this work will serve to locate events in an ordinary version of the gospels.
