More DescriptionFor many Jewish Christians of the first century, living in the light of the gospel was challenging. Having accepted Jesus as the long-awaited Messiah, they were regarded as dangerous, misguided and even disloyal.

The guides in this series by Tom Wright can be used on their own or alongside his New Testament for Everyone commentaries.
