Discover the captivating insights of Titus Flavius Josephus, the Jewish historian, military leader, and Roman citizen, who offers an unparalleled account of the Jewish people during the 1st century Roman Empire. Born in Jerusalem under Caligulas reign and present at the siege of Jerusalem, Josephus is a pivotal figure among early Christian writers. Biblical scholar Henry St. James Thackery from Kings College, UK, curates the most significant passages for understanding Christian origins and New Testament studies. He notes, Some figures in the New Testament, merely names, come alive through Josephus as he provides the rich backdrop of Jewish and world history during the time of our Lord and the early church. With over 400 footnotes and extensive appendices intertwined throughout the audio, listeners can immerse themselves in Thackerys classroom experience. Names and places are pronounced in authentic Erasmian Koine Greek, enhancing the learning journey. (Summary by Rebecca Eden Walker)Copyright Science Fiction Collection キリスト教 スピリチュアリティ 世界 聖職・福音主義
