The Syrian Christ - A Lebanese Christian reveals how Near Eastern customs are reflected in the Bible and in Jesus' everyday life (Paperback)

He had experienced it first-hand, since during his boyhood living conditions were still identical with those of Jesus' time. When Abraham Rihbany tells us about the domestic life of his family and the world of Syrian shepherds and farmers, the Biblical world comes to life with the colorful commotion of the market-place, the discomforts of traveling, the birth of children, the struggle for ones' daily bread, the Eastern manner of speech - in short, Rihbany immerses us in this ancient world, and we see Jesus the man in his own Near Eastern culture.

This powerful and warmhearted book will delight the reader with its simplicity of narrative and with its insight into the world of the Near East.
