ARCHAEOLOGY AND THE ITINERANT JESUS - J A LLOYD...

New Testament scholars generally agree that the historical Jesus was itinerant. Mark claims
that Jesus travelled among the towns and villages of Galilee  preached in their synagogues 
attracted large crowds  and journeyed through the surrounding regions. Yet few settlements are
named  there is no clear itinerary of Jesus' travels  and the summary travel statements belong
to Mark's editorial material. Consequently  there is a high degree of uncertainty concerning
Jesus' itinerant ministry. However  archaeological surveys have discovered approximately 200
Early Roman period towns and villages in Galilee  with a material culture that is distinctively
Jewish. Jewish identity markers have also been found at sites in surrounding regions. In this
study  J. A. Lloyd draws on archaeological data and literary sources to explore the extent and
plausibility of Jesus' itinerant ministry as depicted in Mark 1.14-8.30.
