With Jesus through Galilee according to the Fifth Gospel
Bargil Pixner
The author Fr. Bargil Pixner is a Benedictine monk of the Dominion Abbey in Jerusalem. He has lived in Israel for a quarter of a century, half of it at the Sea of Galilee. Among his many activities, he is responsible for introducing the Dominion Abbey's theology students -- Catholic and Protestant -- to archeology and Biblical topography.
He has led countless groups through the country. With his well-founded knowledge of the Holy Land and its history he draws a lively and persuasive image of the times of turmoil in which Jesus lived.
Recent excavations and discoveries shed light on contemporary groups such as the Natzoreans, Essenes, Pharisees and Zealots. With the help of pictures and historical maps the reader can follow the inner development of Jesus and his disciples and their role in society. Against the backdrop of the landscape of Galilee emerges the figure of Jesus the compassionate man. You feel the writer's love for Jesus as his fellow brother.
