About

Luke's narrative of the eventful sea-voyage of the Apostle Paul from Caesarea to Rome, contained in chapters 25 to 28 of the Acts of the Apostles, is brought vividly to life in the pages of this book, with authoritative insights into key issues such as the shipping and commerce of the ancient world, the weather conditions and topography of the Mediterranean, and the precise identification of the place of Paul's shipwreck on Malta. At the same time, a fascinating picture emerges of the growing first-century Christian community, with pen portraits of Paul's helpers, of Luke "the beloved physician", and of the centurion Julius, who successfully conveyed Paul and Luke to Rome through many adventures. In a book consisting of twenty-five chapters, three interesting appendices and a central section of maps, diagrams and photographs, the author – who made a lifelong study of the first-century Christian world and of the life, work and writings of the Apostle Paul – provides a memorable retelling of a key moment in the progress of early Christianity from Judea into the very heart of the Roman Empire.
