The Landscape of the Gospels
A Deeper Meaning
All human history is profoundly influenced by the land on which we stand. In a most fundamental way, we belong to the earth and our identity is shaped by it. Land or “landscape” is also entwined with the history that has played out in the arena of a particular location.
This study is intended to help the reader savor more of the meaning of the Gospel narratives and of the Acts of the Apostles by attention to their “landscape,” that is, their geographical layout and the biblical history intimately related to this geography. In many instances, the evangelists and the traditions they draw on intend to evoke a deeper, symbolic meaning woven into the places in which the gospel drama unfolds. This unique study will lead the reader to a deeper appreciation of the full meaning of the New Testament narratives and their message.
