Title: Acts of the Apostles
Description: "Acts of the Apostles is a work of great historical and cultural importance, partly because it charts the early days of Christianity, but also because its author, being neither Roman nor of the governing class, offers a view of the Roman Empire other than that provided by most contemporary historians. However, though well known in translation, the work is all too seldom read in the original Greek. This book is designed to help all those who would like to do so, but whose Greek is either rusty or not very advanced. The book contains a brief introduction dealing with questions of authorship, date, titles and the work's reliability, and a short bibliography. The main part of the text consists of a summary of each chapter followed by a section of Greek text, supplied with facing vocabulary. It will be of interest to schools, theological and other colleges offering elementary courses in Greek, and to those working on their own."--Bloomsbury Publishing
