Life in Year One: What the World Was Like in First Century Palestine

Author: Scott Korb
Stars: 2
Review by: Mandy Apgar


This is almost just as much of a Biblical analysis as it is social history. The point was to show how life would had been like in the time of Jesus, but a bit too often it got sidetracked into analyzing various verses and other tidbits instead of giving much history. Death, marriage, childhood rituals, and even a nice section on the taxation system are included however.
