Title: The Apostle: A life of Paul, by John Charles Pollock ISBN: 0-340-10688-3 Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton Pub. Date: 1969 Format: Unknown Binding |
Average Customer Rating: 3.67 (3 reviews)

Summary: Not Good
Comment: This book was a huge dissapointment for me. I was expecting an in depth account of the person of Paul and what I got was completely different. Basically, Pollock just summarized the book of Acts and used some of Paul's epistles. The scope of the Paul's life was extremmely limited because Pollock did venture to use and extra-biblical sources.
To get a good summary of this book, read the New Testament.
Rating: 4
Summary: This book is extraordinary and highly readible.
Comment: John Pollack does a remarkable job of presenting the life of the great Apostle Paul. I would recommend this work to all who really want to grasp the essence of not only the Apostles life but the time period in which he lived. Pollack gives fantastic details of the first century Graeco-Roman world. His impeccable scholarship and spiritual maturity combine to produce a work that encourages the reader to dig deeper into the sacred text, which is the foundation of the biography. Of special interest to the Bible student is the considerable background information of the Pauline epistles ie, the context of each one in relation to the Apostles life. Anyone who seriously questions the authenticity of the New Testament would glean much credible information from this book. Pollack presents the Apostle as a flesh and blood man transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and hope you will to.

Summary: This is a most amazing reconstruction of the life of Paul.
Comment: This book gives you an insight into the life of Paul. Its as if it were written as a modern biography, but the Biblical narrative is interwoven with all the latest reseach on the historical background to Paul. It is a must for anyone who wants to preach on Paul. I couldn't put it down
