#1 The author's goal is to help you mentally transport yourself back in time to read the Bible as one of Jesus' first-century disciples. He wants to help you appreciate the Bible's original Middle Eastern setting.
#2 Embracing Jesus' Jewishness is a recent development in Christian scholarship. It has been realized that Jesus was overly cast within Greco-Roman society, to the neglect of his Jewish context. Seeing him in his context sheds new light on his ministry and deepens our understanding of his words.
#3 I grew up believing that the Bible was the inspired Word of God, but I found it more confusing than inspiring. The last quarter of the Bible, starting with the book of Matthew, was dog-eared, rippled with coffee mug circles, and filled with highlighting and thoughts penciled into the margins.
#4 The site of Emmaus is unknown, but it is believed to be located near Motza, a village just northwest of Jerusalem. Its ancient name was Ha-motza, meaning the spring, which was translated into Greek as Em-ma-oos, or Emmaus.
