What was life like for firstcentury Christians?Imagine a modestsized Roman home of a welltodo Christian household wedged into a thickly settled quarter of Corinth. In the lingering light of a summer evening, men, women and children, merchants, working poor and slaves, a mix of races and backgrounds have assembled in the dimly lit main room are are spilling into the central courtyard. This odd assortment of gathered believerssome thirty in numberare attentive as the newly arrived and travelweary emissary from Paul reads from the papyrus scroll he has brought from their apostolic mentor.But if you were to be transported to this scene you would perhaps be overwhelmed by a flood of unexpected difference. The voice of the reader recedes as through open windows the din and clamor of the city assault your ears. Hooves clunk and cart wheels grind and echo from the street while drivers shout, vendors call and neighbors gather and converse. And later, as you accompany a family through darkened and dangerous streets to their thirdstory tenement apartment, you might try to mask your shock at the cramped and unsafe conditions.In The GrecoRoman World of the New Testament Era James Jeffers provides an informative and scenic tour of daily life during the time of Jesus and the apostles. He affords 'youarethere' glimpses of everything from legal codes to dinner foods, from social hierarchy to apartment living, from education to family dynamics. His eyeopening book will advance your understanding of the New Testament and early Christianity and enrich your reading and application of the Bible.
