In this new volume, renowned scholar Jerome Murphy-O'Connor does
for Ephesus what he did for Corinth in his award-winning "St.
Paul's Corinth. "He combs the works of twenty-six ancient authors
for information about ancient Ephesus, from its beginnings to the
end of the biblical era. Readers can now picture for themselves
this second of the two major centers of Paul's missionary work,
with its houses, shops, and monuments, and above al the
world-renowned temple of Artemis. After presenting the textual and
archaeological evidence, Murphy-O'Connor leads the reader on a walk
through St. Paul's Ephesus and describes the history of Paul's
years in the city. Although Ephesus has been a ruin for many
hundreds of years, readers of this book will find themselves
transported back to the days of its flourishing.
"Jerome Murphy-O'Connor, OP, has been a professor of New
Testament at the Ecole Biblique of Jerusalem since1967. He has
lectured throughout the world and is the author of numerous books,
including the popular Oxford Press archaeological guidebook "The
Holy Land; "and "Pal the Letter-Writer, St. Paul's Corinth, and
Jesus "and "Pal: Parallel Lives, " al published by Liturgical
Press."
