Beschrijving

Volume 3, The book of Acts and Paul in Roman custody

This volume provides a unique opportunity not only to learn about the custodial system of the Graeco-Roman world, but to better view Paul’s persona and Christian mission as well. Brian Rapske’s outstanding study shows Luke himself to be an ardent helper of Paul the missionary prisoner. The author has produced an invaluable resource for both Acts and Pauline scholars, having placed the prison narratives of Paul in both their cultural and literary settings. The footnotes alone demonstrate the wealth of socio-cultural knowledge that Rapske brings to his reading of the Acts account as well as his understanding of the Pauline missions via-a-vis his suffering in prison. – Journal for the Study of the New Testament
