Making use of his true scholar's understanding, yet writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright captures the dauntless power of these letters. They were written by Paul while in prison facing the possibility of imminent death, yet burn with undimmed passion. Paul seeks to help direct the growing faith where his influence might prove crucial, and writes a very personal letter to a slave-owner on behalf of a runaway.

Review:

''This enterprise is probably the most exciting thing to have happened in Christian education for many years.'' --Expository Times

''Each book is written in Wright's familiar, accessible language and can be used for either individual or group study to enhance reader understanding of the Bible.'' --Life and Work
