J. W. McGarvey's superb commentary on the Acts of the Apostles is
an example of New Testament analysis and discussion accomplished
with expertise, scholarship and lucidity. As a scholar of the
Bible, McGarvey was struck by the lack of a reliable and
authoritative readings of the Book of Acts. Such an important work
of Christian history (Acts relates the early spread of the
Christian faith through the Roman Empire and beyond) had not
received an organized and sequential analysis explaining to
readers. The overarching message of Acts is simply that the reason
followers of Jesus Christ created an entirely new church distinct
from Judaism, is that the Jewish priesthood and temple rejected his
teachings and principles. The book depicts a time of rapid change;
the legal distinctions of Judaism and Christianity are discussed by
St. Luke, as is the apparent contradiction of the Jews rejecting a
messiah who was himself born a Jew.
