The New Testament is filled with stories of Jesus eating with people—from extravagant wedding banquets to simple meals of loaves and fishes. The Food and Feasts of Jesus offers a new perspective on life in biblical times by taking readers inside these meals. Food production and distribution impacted all aspects of ancient life; including the teachings of Jesus. From elaborate holiday feasts to a simple farmer’s lunch; the book explores the significance of various meals; discusses key ingredients; places food within the socioeconomic conditions of the time; and offers accessible recipes for readers to make their own tastes of the first century. Ideal for individual reading or group study; this book opens a window into the tumultuous world of the first century and invites readers to smell; touch; and taste the era’s food.

But it contains amazing detailed info about the underground railroad and the history of slavery and abolitionist movements.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Poor Choice Based on Limited PreviewBy CustomerNot really what I was looking for. A better preview of the content would have been useful. I will donate it to someone who may benefit from it more than I have.1 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
