ISRAEL PROGRAM
J-TERM 2012
“The Land of Prophets, Priests and Kings”
A Study in Old Testament and New Testament Backgrounds
January 2-14, 2012
   
Nyack College and ATS invite
you to join a life-changing study program to the Holy Land. This
unique program centers upon the lives and ministries of familiar Old Testament and New Testament personalities. With
the land as our classroom, with archaeology, history, geography,
language and culture as our resources, we will journey back into
the religious, political, cultural and geographical environment
of prophets, priests and kings. Jesus’ ministry within a complex religious environment is of special interest. Our aim is to better understand
the influences and the impact of the
biblical record within its various contexts. We anticipate
a rich and rewarding program. Our goal is to search the Scriptures,
break bread together and fellowship in travel, that we also might
proclaim, “Did
not our hearts burn within us as He spoke to us on the way?” (Luke
24:32)
