Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Christmas is perhaps the most treasured Christian holiday and at the same time, one of the least understood. Research suggests that large numbers of Americans are confused about the central reason for the holiday. Even evangelical believers cannot agree that the birth of Jesus is the most important factor of this national observance. Modern American culture has challenged the religious importance of Christmas. The media and retail stores have helped suppress the religious emphasis by asserting "Happy Holidays" rather than "Merry Christmas." So, the question is, "What is the truth about Christmas?" Is it found in the season's holiday music? Is the meaning in decorated trees and lighted city streets? Does commercialized gift-giving explain the purpose of the holiday? Perhaps it resides in Santa Claus and his magic-flying reindeer. So, where do we find the value in a holiday titled Christmas? The truth is found in the pages of the New Testament. Angels, shepherds, magi, a Jewish king, and the Roman Empire all play a part in the validity of the holiday. How was Christmas planned in heaven? What does Scripture say about the incarnation? How did the shepherds find the Christ child in the darkness of a city without streetlights? How many magi arrived in Jerusalem to seek the new king? Where did they travel from? Why did they make the journey? What binds all these issues together around the birth of a baby in a small insignificant village? This volume presents the truth about an event the entire world uses to date its calendar.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the spring of approximately 30 AD, events in Jerusalem would alter the course of human history. But what actually happened - and how do we know?Drawing on archaeology, ancient texts, Jewish tradition, and the latest New Testament scholarship, this book reconstructs the final week of Jesus' life with rigorous attention to the historical record. From the pre-existent Christ of Jewish expectation to the Messianic entry that alarmed the temple establishment, and from the precise chronology of Passion Week to the legal irregularities of his trials, each chapter examines what the evidence shows.Jesus had multitudes of followers in Jerusalem that week, so why did no one defend him? What was the nature of the Last Supper within its Passover Seder context? What do Roman crucifixion practices reveal about the Gospel accounts? What explains the torn temple veil, Jesus' words from the cross, and the explosive emergence of resurrection worship within days of the burial? What historical evidence exists for the resurrection itself?This is not devotional speculation - it is careful historical inquiry, written for curious readers - not scholars. No Greek or Hebrew required. No seminary degree needed. Just an open mind and a desire to understand the most important week in human history - up close, in detail, and in plain language.This book is for readers who want to move beyond surface familiarity with the Passion narrative and engage the deeper questions of what happened, when, and why."The most important week in history deserves the most careful examination. These pages deliver exactly that. A book that brings the evidence to life for everyday believers who want more than a Sunday school answer." - Rev. Dan Betzer, Pastor, Author, Television/Radio Host, and Presbyter of the General Council for the Assemblies of God (retired) This item is printed on demand.
