Did Matthew intend to show the apostle Peter as an apostate?
I don’t do a lot of book reviews on my blog. I usually
reserve them to Goodreads.com (a site specifically for book reviews) and
occasionally Amazon.
But every once in a while, a theology book has greater significance
than just its own contents and arguments.
This would book would seem to be the opposite. It really
doesn’t seem to be anywhere in the public consciousness anymore. On Goodreads, three
other people rated it, and one other person besides me wrote a review (and it
was only one sentence long). Other than some reviews by religious scholars at the
time the book came out, it just hasn’t been a big thing.
So why would a niche book that most people even among theology
nerds probably haven’t read be worth additional attention?
