St Paul At Rome Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from St. Paul in Athens: The City and the Discourse The writer's purpose, as the title indicates, is to give a Monograph on Athens; but Athens, in connection with its one scriptural episode and association, - the memorable visit of the Great Apostle of the Gentiles, and his Discourse on its Areopagus. In the fulfilment of a long-cherished purpose - though in many respects differing in plan and treatment, it is designed to form a companion to what was published many years ago, after a personal sojourn in the 'City of the Caesars' - "St. Paul in Rome." The theme of the present Volume is twofold. 'Athens and St. Paul' would probably be a name more strictly accurate as regards the order of sequence: - the account of the Great City taking precedence of the Great Discourse: but the other title is retained, as more in harmony with that of the preceding Work just referred to. It will, moreover, be seen that the local descriptions and the Apostolic visit to which these are the settings, are not treated separately, but are largely interblended.
