More DescriptionThis commentary describes a tumultuous time in biblical history, especially for Jews.Caught in the political chaos of the house of Herod, the challenges of Roman rule over Judeaand the sectarian battles within Judaism, this first century writer (Luke) documents the rise of anintriguing movement of Jews who embraced Yeshua/Jesus as the promised Messiah and describeswhat they had to contend with.He also presents the connection between the Jewish first followers of Yeshua and the much largerGentile world, out of which came many of the congregations formed in the first century to which RavShaul (Paul) wrote letters, making up most of the B'rit Hadashah (New Testament).Who was Luke?
