An Archaeological Search For Jesus is a documentary written and hosted by, Biblical Archaeology Review editor Hershel Shanks as he traveled from Galilee to Jerusalem in an archeologically based search of the first century world of Judea and Palestine in which Jesus lived and died. Includes visits to Nazareth, Sepphoris, Capernaum, Bethsaida, Kursi, Qumran and Jerusalem. In each installment, Shanks interviews eminent and knowledgeable archaeologists and diverse New Testament scholars about the sites historically associated with Jesus and other gospel figures. Viewers are treated with a trip to Qumran, the site where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered, are provided insight into the Jewish context of Jesus' teachings, learn what is historically accurate based upon archeological discoveries and what has been demonstrated as mere legend (such as the commonly ascribed synagogue where Jesus was thought to have preached, and what is the more probable site for this recorded incident in the gospels). This informed and informative, superbly recorded and presented, non-denominational film offers the perfect introduction and overview of the archaeological evidence of Jesus and early Christianity.
