His writing to Timothy is something I've always wanted to understand more thoroughly, so a history of who Paul was became very helpful for me. Pollock does a good job of weaving history, archaeology, Biblical text, and third-hand accounts into a good overview of who Paul was and how significant his impact was on the early church. ( ) The Apostle masterfully combines careful adherence to biblical text, detailed research, and a storyteller's gift to create a book equally relevant for both casual readers fascinated by Paul's life and serious biblical scholars. Pollock begins his fast-movig narrative with Stephen's death and follows Paul through his conversion, missionary journeys, and eventual execution. Many will enjoy it simply as a satisfying and insightful true-life story, although maps and a study guide allow for deeper exploration. Muitos procuram fazer uma imagem mental de Paulo - o indefinível pequeno judeu - cuja vida e mensagem têm influenciado dezenove séculos, mas poucos em nossos dias o conhecem tão bem quanto John Pollock, o renomado autor de biografias. Com a finalidade de realçar o drama da vida de Paulo e sua personalidade profundamente humana, Pollock tira diretamente das Escrituras cada diálogo e descrição. Como fundamento dos tocantes detalhes da vida do Apóstolo, o Autor apresenta ricas informações históricas colhidas em suas pesquisas nas terras bíblicas e em documentos confiáveis dos principais estudiosos do mundo do Novo Testamento. The acclaimed, authentic biography of the early church's greatest evangelist--the Apostle Paul. Master storyteller John Pollock makes Paul and his amazing story freshly alive, so that you can know the greatest apostle much as Luke and Timothy did as they traveled with him. As you turn the pages, you'll sense Paul's motives, his aims and priorities; what mattered to him; and what he was willing to die for. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
