Title: Saint Saul: A Skeleton Key to the Historic Jesus
Post by: CatholicFireman on October 21, 2011, 06:36:56 PM
Pax†

Hello everybody.  My wife brought the above titled book home from a used book sale for me but added that she didn't know if it was a good book or just another secular spin so she suggested I do some research before I either keep it or toss it.  I couldn't find anything online about it except companies trying to sell it.  Can you folks help me out?  I really appreciate it.

God Bless and thanks in advance.

I looked it up on the internet and found it on sale on Amazon. From the little I read about it  looks like you need to toss it.  :)

Maybe the first line of Amazon book review would convince you Historian Donald Harman Akenson believes that biblical scholars have gone wrong in searching Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John for the historical Jesus. "

Not worth reading I'd say, "just another secular spin" sounds like an accurate description.
