This historical reappraisal of the Acts of the Apostles, written
in narrative form, allows the reader to understand the biblical
author's worldview, historical and ideological assumptions, and
purposes as they were communicated through portions of this work.
Marion Soards analyzes the speech texts by comparing them to
writings from ancient history, rhetoric, and midrashic
interpretation of scripture. He points out the interesting features
in the speeches and highlights the thematic similarities. Soards
provides a clear picture of the manner of writings in Acts, the
theology, and the encompassing history of the early Christian
period, and he supplies a sound basis for contemporary
Jewish-Christian relations.
