Jerusalem to Illyricum

More about the book

Focusing on Paul's church planting mission from Jerusalem to Illyricum between AD 34 and 57, this study explores the cultural resistance he faced upon his arrival. Barnett examines significant events, including Paul's encyclical to the Galatians and his confrontation with Cephas in Antioch, highlighting the emergence of "false brothers" within the Jerusalem Church. The narrative underscores the rapidity and intensity of Paul's missionary efforts, revealing that his nine letters, written in just a decade, reflect his remarkable energy and drive in spreading the Gospel to the Gentiles.
