Greco-Roman Culture and the Galilee of Jesus is a book-length investigation of the archaeological evidence for Greek and Roman culture in Galilee. Mark Chancey argues that the extent of Greco-Roman culture in Galilee in the time of Jesus has often been greatly exaggerated.

This investigation of Galilee during the time of Jesus demonstrates that, contrary to the perceptions of many scholars, the overwhelming majority of Galilee's population were Jews. It is the only book-length treatment of this subject and is the fullest synthesis available of archaeological and literary evidence for first-century CE Galilee.
