Christian Origins by Christopher Rowland

"Dr Rowland has written a splendid book. He has put together in manageable space a well-read and well-argued account of the beginnings of the Christian movement: a third of it on the Judaism of the first century, a third on Jesus, and a third on Paul and the development from messianic sect to Christian religion. If you are a student, here are the outlines of your New Testament essays, conveniently cut up into three- and four-page sections. If you are a clergyman or teacher, here are the results of all the years of scholarship since you graduated. If you are a professional, here are many insights and nuances which you can weigh with profit." Michael Goulder, Theology
The Revd Professor Chris Rowlands is Dean Ireland's Professor of the Exegesis of Holy Scripture at the University of Oxford.
