As a New Testament character of note, the Apostle Paul is second only to Jesus. In this companion volume to Encounters with Jesus, Ben and Ann Witherington draw on the biblical text and deep knowledge of historical context to bring alive the reactions of several contemporaries to the famous apostle and his words and deeds. Here we hear from friends and companions as well as passing acquaintances and outright enemies of Paul. Including many photos and illustrations, this book helps us to see Paul from many vivid points of view that all up add to a compelling and revealing portrait.

Industry Reviews

“In Encounters with Paul, Ben and Ann Witherington bring Paul—and his varied and widespread web of connections—to life in this imaginative, yet well-informed, collection of ‘reminiscences’ of Paul and his impact as told by friends, rivals, proteges, and partners. This is a winsome and accessible entry point into the social networks and ministry of the apostle.”
—David A. deSilva, trustees’ distinguished professor of New Testament and Greek, Ashland Theological Seminary

“In Encounters with Paul, a sequel to Encounters with Jesus, my beloved friends Ben and Ann Witherington offer us valuable and enjoyable insights into the apostle Paul by creatively, yet responsibly, imagining what twenty-five individuals—ranging from Gamaliel to Phoebe to Nero to Luke—might have said regarding him had they been given the chance. A pleasurable read that engages and energizes one’s biblical, historical, and theological imagination, this is another worthwhile project from the Witheringtons!”
—Todd D. Still, dean and professor of Christian Scriptures, George W. Truett Theological Seminary
