Book Synopsis

Enter Andrew E. Steinmann''s From Abraham to Paul. It is a book which should have been written decades ago. Here''s why. Steinmann not only assumes-quite rightly-that history matters, but he also shows two things about biblical history. First, he shows that in many cases with a little scholarly spadework we can have a pretty good idea as to when key events took place, events like the life of Abraham, the Conquest of the Promised Land, the birth of Jesus, or Paul''s Second Missionary Journey. These events are not the yarn of legend: on the contrary, there is every good intellectually-compelling reason to accept them as history, history that really happened in time and space. . . . The second thing Steinmann shows about history-and this is no less important-is its complexity. Some of the questions which the book takes up are thorny questions indeed,
