520 1 $a"Although many books have been published on the Acts of the Apostles, Ludemann's work is unique in its emphasis on establishing reliable historical facts. Other scholars have delved into Acts to discover the author's theology and the purpose of his writing. By contrast, Ludemann examines each individual section of this New Testament book to detect what, if any, specific tradition may lay behind it. Ludemann seeks to establish the historical value of the words and deeds of Jesus' disciples and of Paul as they appear in Acts. Where possible, he offers a reasoned judgment on the historical value of every event and action described in this early Christian text."--BOOK JACKET.
