BOOK REVIEWS Hasmonean and Herodian Palaces at Jericho: Final Reports of the 1973–1987 Excavations, Volume III: The Pottery , by Rachel Bar-Nathan. Jerusalem: Israel Exploration Society, 2002. Pp. xi + 284; 8 color plates. Price: $68.00. ISBN 965-221-047-1. This is the second volume to appear (although numbered III) in a projected series of nal reports on E. NetzerÕs 1973 –1987 excavations at Herodian Jericho (Arabic Tulul Abu al-®Alayiq). It represents a revised and updated version of Bar-NathanÕs 1988 M.A. thesis ( The Pottery of Jericho in the Hasmonean Period and the Time of Herod, and the Problem of the Transition from Hasmonean Pottery Types to Pottery Types of the Time of Herod [Jerusalem: Institute of Archaeo- logy at the Hebrew University]). The volume is divided into the fol- lowing chapters: in Chapter 1, Bar-Nathan explains the methodology that she employed to create a typology and chronology for the pottery; Chapter 2 provides an overview of the stratigraphy and chronology of the Jericho palaces; in Chapters 3 –5, Bar-Nathan presents the Hasmo- nean and Herodian pottery types (coarse wares and ne wares); and Chapter 6 is a summary and conclusion. There are two appendices, one comparing the Jericho ceramic types with those from Qumran, and the second presenting all of the pottery from selected loci at Jericho. Two concordances list the Jericho pottery types according to provenience (loci) and catalogue numbers. It would have been helpful to have the pottery illustrated at the end of the volume labeled with the type numbers, as it is cumbersome to have to ip back and forth between the drawings and the text. -

Capernaum, the City of Jesus
Capernaum “Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and taught.” (Mark 1:21) © 2017 David Padfield www.padfield.com Scripture taken from the New King James Version. Copyright 1982 by Thomas Nelson, Inc. Used by permission. All rights reserved. Capernaum, The City Of Jesus Introduction I. The city of Capernaum was a small fishing village on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, about two miles west of the Jordan River. A. The Hebrew name for this village is Keœfar NahΩum, which means, “village of Nahum.” B. While this ancient town is not mentioned by name in the Old Testament, it is mentioned sixteen times in the New Testament. C. Matthew refers to Capernaum as our Lord’s “own city” (Matt 9:1), for it became the center of His Galilean ministry. D. This is interesting since He was not born in Capernaum, His parents did not live in there, and He did not grow up there! E. Jesus performed more miracles and preached more sermons in and around Capernaum than at any other place during His entire ministry. F. The residents of this prosperous town were common people who made their living from fishing, agriculture, and trade. G. The road leading to Damascus passed nearby, providing a commercial link with regions to the north and south. H. Capernaum was also a garrison town, housing a detachment of Roman soldiers, under a centurion, along with government officials. II. It was in the vicinity of Capernaum that Jesus chose several of His apostles. -

Trade and Commerce At Sepphoris, Israel Sarah VanSickle 1998 Honors Research Dr. Dennis E. Groh, Advisor I Introduction Trade patterns in the Near East are the subject of conflicting interpretations. Researchers debate whether Galilean cities utilized trade routes along the Sea of Galilee and the Mediterranean or were self-sufficient, with little access to trade. An analysis of material culture found at specific sites can most efficiently determine the extent of trade in the region. If commerce is extensive, a significant assemblage of foreign goods will be found; an overwhelming majority of provincial artifacts will suggest minimal trade. -
