THE
LIFE OF JESUS

The article Ministry of Jesus discusses how his ministry is typically separated into distinct phases, the early part in Galillee and the final part in Judea.

Jesus' Early Galilean ministry begins when after his Baptism he goes back to Galilee. In this early period he preaches around Galilee and recruits his first disciples who begin to travel with him and eventually form the core of the early Church. The Major Galilean ministry includes the commissioning of the Twelve Apostles, and covers most of the ministry of Jesus in Galilee.

In the Later Judean ministry Jesus starts his final journey to Jerusalem through Judea. The Later Perean ministry refers to Jesus' travels towards Jerusalem through Perea . The Final ministry in Jerusalem is sometimes called the Passion Week and begins with Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem and ends with his crucifixion.
