The Food and Feasts of the Apostle Paul takes readers inside the world of the early Christian church through a new lens--what people ate (and didn't eat). The early church encompassed diverse communities and people, and understanding its food helps us understand both the worship and culture of these people, as well as their sources of conflict. Each chapter introduces readers to a different community or church Paul visited or started, explores one or two key foods, and offers recipes that reflect each community. Recipes range from simple to complex, from snack to feast. The Food and Feasts of the Apostle Paul aims to help readers more fully experience the diverse cultures of the early Christian church to better understand the teachings of Jesus, Paul, and early Christian leaders.

Industry Reviews

"Few figures in history have had more words written about them than the Apostle Paul, but Doug Neel may be the first to examine this influential character through what he ate. This collection of recipes from the Ancient Roman world brings the life and times of the Apostle Paul to life like never before."

--Max Miller, author of Tasting History: Explore the Past through 4,000 Years of Recipes and creator and host of Tasting History on YouTube

Douglas Neel's book, The Food and Feasts of the Apostle Paul, is a wonderful exploration of the food and culture in the locations and communities where Paul conducted his missionary work. It provides an in-depth look at the food traditions of early Christian communities and allows readers to experience the flavors of the first-century Mediterranean world. This book is perfect for anyone interested in learning about the food culture of early Christianity.
