In the Time of Paul: How Christianity Entered Into and Modified Life in the Roman Empire (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from In the Time of Paul: How Christianity Entered Into and Modified Life in the Roman Empire
Of the more significant facts pertaining to the Gentile world into which the Apostle Paul carried the Gospel of Christ. It is not possible to make an exact division of the com posite life of his times and to trace out in all their detail the political, social, moral, relig ious, and intellectual phases of the old civili zation which it was the task of Christianity to recast. The various departments of influence overlap and intermingle; yet in order to set forth the complex conditions with which the new religion had to deal, and out of which it achieved unparalleled results, it seems best to present a series of pictures, outlining in swift succession the special aspects of the world into which Christianity was forcing its tri umphant way.
