The World Jesus Knew

What was life like when Jesus lived and worked in ancient Palestine? What options did people have for treating sickness besides going to Jesus for healing? Did you know that the layout of the U.S. Senate floor layout is modeled after the Jewish Sanhedrin? What kind of house was most common when Jesus was growing up? The World Jesus Knew is a treasure trove of information about daily life in ancient Palestine. Children (and their parents and teachers) will gain valuable perspective on the cultural context in which Jesus lived, taught, and ministered, enriching their understanding of the stories of the New Testament.

Don’t miss the companion volumes from the Curious Kid’s Guides series: The World of the First Christians and The World of the Old Testament. We love these titles for the rich contextual information they provide to enrich and deepen children’s understanding of the stories and teachings of Scripture.
