Description
Ben Witherington III attempts to reenchant our reading of Paul on this creative reconstruction of ancient Corinth. Following a fictitious Corinthian man named Nicanor through an eventful week of industrial dealings and conflict, you’ll encounter life at quite a lot of levels of Roman society–sooner or later meeting Paul himself and gaining entrance into the Christian community there. The result’s an unforgettable introduction to life in a big center of the New Testament world. A lot of full-page text boxes expand on numerous aspects of life and culture as we encounter them within the narrative.
