I was impressed with the depth of the author’s knowledge of some of the New Testament, though I found his interpretation very much biased by his liberalism. His limited view of what the Apostles were presenting was evident and grossly missing the true Christian attitude towards the Jews. I do not mean that the Jews have not experienced Anti/Semitism, but I think the author looks at scripture with a very Anti/Christian attitude. I was still informed.
