About the book >.>.> This book is a sequel to The Gospel Story; it takes up at the point in Scripture where that left off at the Descent of the Holy Ghost. The layout of both books is the same: on the left-hand page the text of the Acts of the Apostles and the Pauline Letters runs continuously; on the opposite page there is a commentary paragraph for paragraph. I have made almost no attempt to explain difficult passages but have concentrated on supplying the atmosphere in which St. Paul wrote and on following his main line of thought. The New Testament arranges these letters according to their length and importance. I have rearranged them so that they are now read in the order in which they were written; the Letter to the Romans is in sixth place in this book not first as in the New Testament. Seven of these letters were written during the course of St. Paul’s missionary journeys as recorded in the Acts; I have interrupted the narrative of the Acts in order to fit in these letters where they belong. The remaining seven are grouped together at the end of the book; they were all written after the conclusion of the Acts. (SP)
