Life and Times of Jesus Vol2
Historical Israel by
Alfred Edersheim
“Alfred Edersheim’s “”The Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah”” is a storehouse of information on the background of the New Testament. This classic work successfully portrays the streets, the marketplaces, the religious conflicts, the people, and the places of Jesus’ earthly ministry.
Edersheim divides his work into five sections, or books:
Book 1 “”The Preparation for the Gospel””
Introductory historical, religious, political, and cultural material based on the author’s extensive knowledge of Jewish lore and customs”.
