This fascinating examination of the earliest years of Christianity
reveals how the man we call St. Paul shaped Christianity as we know
it today.
Historians know almost nothing about the two decades following the
crucifixion of Jesus, when his followers regrouped and began to
spread his message. During this time Paul joined the movement and
began to preach to the gentiles. Using the oldest Christian
documents that we have--the letters of Paul--as well as other early
Chris-tian sources, historian and scholar James Tabor reconstructs
the origins of Christianity. Tabor shows how Paul separated himself
from Peter and James to introduce his own version of Christianity,
which would continue to develop independently of the message that
Jesus, James, and Peter preached.
"Paul and Jesus" illuminates the fascinating period of history when
Christianity was born out of Judaism.
