    I purchased this book for a friend who lives far away from me and she has said that she is very pleased with it and had other publications by Tom Wright. Eden has a wide choice, especially of Christian gifts.

    This is such an interesting adjunct to the New Testament passages about Paul and whilst its size might seem daunting once a chapter has been read you'll find you want to go on to the next one.

    I am two thirds of the way through this title and finding the script useful and informative. The author's approach is logical and he makes an effort to fully explain and defend his argument. I have read his work before and found it helpful. The detail is interesting and I look forward to what he has to say in the final third.
