This is the reason why Paul can be seen as the re-founder of early Christianity and as catalyst of euphoric actions in honor of it. I am sometime afraid that this Christianity was criticized by the mosaic Jews with a certain measure of justification, if we see Paul’s actions in the light of his evident self righteousness, his forceful speeches professing faith and his lack of tolerance for those who think things through.
This work was really a chore for me apart from the fact the the writing style and the diction is much simpler than many writings of the Old Testament.
Anyway, a lot happens and I am of the quite un-Sadducean opinion that it should continue to be kept as a complete work apart from some repetitions.
