"Although the archaeological evidence indicates a prosperous and thriving Galilee
in the early first century CE, the Gospel texts suggest a society under stress, where
the rich were flourishing at the expense of the poor. In this multi-disciplinary study,
Rosemary Luff contributes to current debates concerning the pressures on early first-century
Palestinian Jews, particularly with reference to socio-economic and religious issues.
She examines Jesus within his Jewish environment in order to understand why he rose
to prominence when he did, and what motivated him to persevere with his mission.Luff's
study includes six carefully-constructed essays that examine Early Christian texts
against the wider background of late Second Temple Judaic literature, together with
the material evidence of Galilee and Judea (Jerusalem). Synthesizing a wide range
of archaeological and textual data for the first time, she offers new insights into
the depth of social discontent and its role in the rise of Christianity"
