Description

Today, we are separated from the people of the New Testament by thousands of miles of geography and thousands of years of time.  Understanding who they were, what they did, and why they did what they did is foreign to us for both reasons.  James S. Jeffers, The Greco-Roman World of the New Testament Era: Exploring the Background of Early Christianity, goes a long way to closing the distance in our understanding of the New Testament world.

In The Greco-Roman World of the New Testament Era James Jeffers provides an informative and scenic tour of daily life during the time of Jesus and the apostles. He affords “you-are-there” glimpses of everything from legal codes to dinner foods, from social hierarchy to apartment living, from education to family dynamics. His eye-opening book will advance your understanding of the New Testament and early Christianity and enrich your reading and application of the Bible.
