Who Is Jesus? His Life, His Land, His Time
Help young children understand the context of the New Testament: daily and religious life, land features, the flow of redemptive history by learning about Israel and its Law, the Roman empire, daily life, Jesus' teaching, miracles, the temple, and His final days on earth. Helpful “Did You Know?" sections, charts, and references explain life at the time of Jesus, such as Jesus' family tree, 39 jobs forbidden on the Sabbath, numeric symbols in the Bible, the Jewish calendar and religious factions, maps, and more. Multi-denomination friendly, this book does include some Latin phrases and mention of Jesus performing the first Mass (the Last Supper). This Ignatius Press edition includes a multitude of drawn illustrations (including a full-body image of the Shroud of Turin). Originally written in French, any scriptures are taken from the Second Catholic Edition of the RSV. 93 pgs, pb. ~ Ruth
This lovely book is full of interesting information and beautiful illustrations for children to learn everything about Jesus - his life, his land and his time. Some of the many fun and interesting questions this book answers include: Who were Jesus' grandparents? What was his house like? What did Jesus' disciples wear, and what did they eat? What did the Jerusalem Temple look like? What kind of fish did Peter catch in the Sea of Galilee? How did people pray back then? Why were Romans in the land of Jesus? What kind of trees grew along the roads that Jesus walked?
