Paths Of The Messiah And Sites Of The Early Church From Galilee To Jerusalem Jesus And Jewish Christianity In Light Of Archaeological Discoveries
Book Description
For those drawn to walk in the footsteps of Jesus, this comprehensive exploration offers a unique bridge between ancient faith and modern discovery. Bargil Pixner, a dedicated priest and archaeologist who spent much of his life in the Holy Land, presents the remarkable fruits of his decades-long research into the sacred sites where Christianity first took root.
This substantial work reveals how archaeological findings illuminate the world Jesus knew, from the shores of Galilee to the streets of Jerusalem. Pixner's notable discoveries, including the Essene Gate in Jerusalem and the ancient town of Bethsaida, provide tangible connections to the places where Christ lived, taught, and gathered his earliest followers.
What makes this exploration particularly meaningful is its focus on the first Jewish Christians and their practices. Through careful examination of archaeological evidence, accompanied by photographs, illustrations, and detailed maps, readers discover how the earliest believers lived their faith in the very locations where Jesus walked.
Developed in collaboration with Scripture scholar Professor Rainer Riesner, these findings speak to both the curious mind and the seeking heart. The author's intimate familiarity with the Holy Land, gained through years of residence and pilgrimage leadership, brings authenticity and depth to each discovery.
For spiritual seekers interested in understanding the historical foundations of their faith, this work offers a profound journey through the sacred geography of early Christianity.
