Subject: Did it start as a legal brief? |
Bible Note: Jalek, You said, "he visited the actual places, and spoke to eye witnesses" which sounds to me like something a lawyer's investigator would do. Also, it seems doubtful that this is intended as a history since very few of the apostles are talked about in Acts where the emphasis is on Paul. There is also a chapter devoted completely to a long detailed description of a sea voyage, which sounds more like giving an account of Paul's whereabouts since he came late to his appointment in Rome. Also, I read someplace that Annas had a relative named Theophilus who was briefly installed by the Romans as high priest. I wondered if he might be the addressee. Perhaps this is too speculative. loavesnfish |
