The geopolitical landscape of first-century Judea was a complex tapestry of religious tradition and imperial pragmatism. At the center of this world stood the office of the High Priest, a position that carried both divine weight and political volatility. To understand Caiaphas, one must first understand the precarious nature of the Herodian and Roman oversight that defined his era. Since the Roman annexation of Judea in 6 A.D., the appointment of the High Priest had shifted from a lifelong hereditary right to a political appointment managed by the Roman governor.

This book tells how Israel was created after Jewish Zionist military attacks in 1948 drove 8,000,000 Palestinians (half of Palestine’s population) from their land. Zionists justified their actions by claiming that Jews were retaking their biblical homeland. Despite that claim, Israeli researchers have not been able to use DNA to define a Jew. British rule of Palestine preceded these atrocities. During that period, the British worked with Zionist colonists to crush Palestinian opposition to continuous Jewish immigration and the Palestinians' loss of land. Information is reported about U. S.

When we picture the first Advent, we see Mary and Joseph huddled by a manger. We picture Gabriel, magi, and shepherds tending their flocks. A shining star against a midnight sky. But this harmonized version has lifted the Advent story out of its context--those who experienced the first Advent had to travel through great darkness to reach the hope that shining star announced. Trusted scholar and community organizer Kelley Nikondeha takes us back, to where the landscape of Palestine is once again the geographic, socioeconomic, and political backdrop for the Advent story.
