It provides an insightful context of contemporary politics that gives a clearer understanding of Jesus and his followers calling for a radical change from values imposed by an expanding empire. It changes my perspective about Jesus as a person and as a model for a movement.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good starting place for understanding the New TestamentBy Kindle CustomerAfter reading other books pertaining to the earliest Christian communities and Acts in particular; I think this work is a good starting place for critical readers of the New Testament who have lingering questions regarding the descrepancy between Paul's letters; Acts; and the Gospels. The solutions and judgements regarding these differences make use of sometimes overlooked details in scripture itself; along with the latest understanding of the social world of the New Testament. The narrative chronological format kept my interest until the end and is another reason I think this is a good starting place for understanding the New Testament.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
