Editor’s Pick: Biblical Historical Context
The blog Biblical Historical Context is worth following. The author has tackled many of the difficult subjects in the Bible, some of which we just don’t quite have an answer to yet, if ever. Some of the biggest contributions the author has made have been over the origins of the Israelites and the conquest narrative found in Joshua. Biblical Historical Context is written by a Christian who is refreshingly honest about the text. Add this blog to your regular reading.

They were merely sojourners, immigrants, and aliens in the land of the Roman Empire. Therefore, they did not fight for Caesar, since Jesus was their King. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in Early Christianity.
