Excellent Book for Laypersons and Bible Students,

This review is from: Paul The Apostle (Paperback)
I recently bought several books on the Apostle Paul, and in my opinion this is the best overall summary written for laypersons and serious Bible students. Well organized and doesn't take a lot for granted. I really enjoy the articles throughout the book on subjects important to understanding the times (e.g., letter writing, Roman politics, etc). My wife and I are getting ready to take a Journeys of Apostle Paul tour in Greece and Turkey and this will be the one book I will be taking with me. This author is one of those that doesn't tire you out with long, scholarly sentences. A great read.

Paul the Apostle,

This review is from: Paul The Apostle (Paperback)
this book was very interesting and informative. I especially enjoyed the look at the environment Paul grew up in and the impact that would have on a dispersion Jew. I also liked the approach to the letters, their chronology, and the disputes involved over each. I found the book easy to read and inviting. I came away having a much better picture of who this amazing man really was.

This review is from: Paul The Apostle (Kindle Edition)
This book is a pleasure to read. The author has a nice conversational writing style. He does a great job of bringing the Apostle Paul to life as a real person, and to put his travels in context. His explanations of the ancient cities were very interesting. He also provides nice overviews of his letter's, and explains the situations in the cities that triggered his writing them. I'll be on the lookout for more books from the author.
