Jerusalem

Trond Bakkevig

Through 2000 years, the author follows Jerusalem’s dramatic story as it is reflected in the Christian communities in the city. Bakkevig himself has worked for many years to facilitate conversations between religious leaders in Israel and Palestine, and possesses a unique combination of theological and political experience from his time on an interdenominational council, as an adviser to Norwegian religious ministers abroad, and as a member of the World Council of Churches. The book is a fascinating journey through politics, culture, faith, and the eternal conflicts in the Holy Land.
