This episode looks at the situation at Rome in the mid- |
|
first century that led Paul to write the letter to the |
|
Romans, now in the New Testament. In particular, I delve |
|
into the purposes in Paul writing and his focus on what |
|
he sees as ethnic divisions between Greeks and Judeans in |
|
the groups of Jesus-followers. It appears that certain |
|
Greek or Gentile followers of Jesus were looking down |
|
upon Judean Jesus-followers who were concerned with |
|
following the law, including avoidance of foods |
|
associated with idolatry. The next episode will consider |
|
Paul's approach to this situation. |

This episode is part of series one ("Paul and his |
|
Communities") of the Religions of the Ancient |
|
