Some years ago I discovered that my son is gay. We came to different understandings of what the Bible says on this topic. This in no way dented my love for him, and in many ways deepened my admiration for his amazing example of Christian discipleship.
Zöllner und Sünder
Unternehmer im Dienst der römischen Republik
Das Buch untersucht die römischen "publicani", die während der Republik als Zöllner und Sünder bekannt waren. Es beleuchtet, wie private Gesellschaften unter staatlicher Kontrolle essentielle Dienstleistungen wie Steuereinnahme und Heeresausrüstung übernahmen. Trotz ihrer Ausbeutung der Provinzen war das System lange effizient, bis es nach den Bürgerkriegen an Bedeutung verlor.
