Experience a vivid retelling of the life of Christ, rich with detail, that makes the reader feel like an eyewitness to a series of events with a guide at his side. This guide places each scene in its geographical context, describes the people Jesus encounters, and connects one scene to another in chronological sequence. All this background will help the reader begin to form a mental map of the significant locations in Jesus's life, fix in his mind the people who figure prominently in the narrative and the nature of their relationship with Jesus, and the chain of events in His ministry beginning with the calling of the disciples and leading to the Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension.
In this sixth volume in The Bible for School and Home series, the scene shifts to Jerusalem where Jesus is going to die. Knowing His time is limited, Jesus packs these last days full of powerful teachings, including the Parables of the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, the Prodigal Son, the Good Samaritan, the Ten Virgins, and the Talents. All of these are well covered in this commentary, as are the moving scenes from Holy Week leading up to the Crucifixion and Resurrection.
