Opis

The fifty-six essays in this book present cultural reflection on the gospel assigned for each Sunday in Cycle B of the Roman Lectionary. Each essay highlights aspects of the first-century, East Mediterranean, cultural world in which Jesus lived and suggests a cross-cultural comparison with contemporary western culture. With this information, readers can make fitting applications of Scripture to modern life.
