I am going to the Holy Land in May 2019. I am so excited. I wanted to know if anyone had recommendations of things to read to help prepare for seeing everything. I am going with a group and a priest so we have a guide but love to know the background of sites.
 
Wow! I bet you are so excited! What a wonderful opportunity. Have a great trip.
I have heard nothing but good things from
people who have travelled there.
I would love to go someday.
 
Jerome Murphy-O’Connor, an Irish Dominican who lived most of his adult life in Jerusalem, is the author of this excellent guide to the archeological sites in Israel. I took it with me everywhere I went. But it does cover archeology only, meaning that the cutoff date for inclusion is AD 1700. Anything built more recently than that is not considered as “antiquity” and therefore lies outside the field of archeology.
