Inhaltsangabe

Jerusalem: Church of the Holy Sepulchre is Carta’s latest guidebook designed for tourists in Israel. It is slim enough to be carried easily, but is packed full of helpful text, illustrations, and photographs that will enable visitors and pilgrims to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem to understand and appreciate what they are seeing.

Part One of Jerusalem: Church of the Holy Sepulchre introduces you to the background of Jesus’ cruci xion and burial as told in the Gospel accounts, as well as the development of the various churches that have stood on the site. It also introduces you to the different Christian groups that worship in the building today.

Part Two will be useful as you walk around the building itself, looking at the main points of interest, such as Calvary, the tomb of Jesus, various chapels, and other features you might miss without a guide. The Bibliography and Further Reading list will enable you to take your study of this fascinating building further when you get home.
