Short Review: This was really helpful to understanding the epistles and the early church. The change in format (biography instead of theological look at New Testament) gives a very different perspective in understanding Wright.
Two main features that I really appreciated. The first was understanding the early church as a group that crossed three lines (lines of national identity, class and ethnicity) in a world where no other group was crossing all three.
The second was looking at Paul's history and helping us to understand the epistles. The broad view of Paul and the message of the different epistles makes sense of the differences between the epistles in a way that I have not really understood previously.
