The Life and Works of Flavius Josephus

Make the bible come alive with the sights and sounds of first-century Palestine as recorded by famed historian Josephus. You'll change the way you relate to the stories and figures in the New Testament as you meet John the Baptist, Pontius Pilate, the Sanhedrin and, most importantly, Jesus himself in an entirely new context. Read about history from the perspective of a man who: fought against Rome in the first Jewish-Roman war, carefully recorded Jewish and Roman history, and served as a personal interpreter to emperor Vespasian.

With a foreword by best-selling Christian author David J. Ridges, this comprehensive look at Jewish history from the Creation through the first Jewish-Roman war belongs on the bookshelf of every biblical scholar or history buff.
