Description

In Saint Saul Donald Harman Akenson shows that the answer to the most persistent question in Christianity " What do we really know about the historical Jesus? " is found largely in the writings of an itinerant preacher named Saul. Saul, the author of the Epistles and better known to Christians as Saint Paul, is the closest thing we have to a direct witness. Akenson demonstrates that only through Saul do we have the opportunity to encounter Yeshua - as Jesus was known in his time - in something approaching the original.
