A Week in the Fall of Jerusalem is an imaginative retelling of the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. Ben Witherington III helps recreate the historical and social realities surrounding this event, looking at the lives of various individuals and how their lives might have been impacted by this life changing event. Throughout the narratives, Witherington includes multiple excerpts that expound on the real places, terms, and people connected with this time. While being an entertaining narrative, it is still historically grounded in archaeology and historical sources, making for a very accessible read that is also informative.
