A journalist on Instagram to whom I might be distantly related mentioned this book. Since I was not reviewing anything at the time, and was working through my Christmas present books, I got a Kindle copy of this. What intrigued me was the Paul-Luke connection and how that played into the creation of the New Testament.
There will be more on this later because I am not quite halfway through the book. The first part was tedious,l as the author details his previous intense Catholicism and involvement with yoga, and then repeats it all.
The idea that Luke was a Macedonian whom Paul met in Troas is plausible, and so far there is a lot of conjecture about how Paul looked, and so on. I understand from the Guardian review that I will take issue with some things to come, but I will post later. Let me say that I would not ban this or any other book, and there are worthwhile parts, especially if one speed reads the first 25% or so.
