Podcast 1 2: The Situation at Thessalonica

Philip A. Harland

(4,833 Sterne; 3 Bewertungen)

This second episode looks at the situation among followers of Jesus at Thessalonica in Macedonia in the mid-first century. Considering the ethnic and social makeup of the earliest Christians, this episode also discusses two main problems faced by these followers of Jesus: “afflictions” and the death of fellow-followers of Jesus. This prepares the way for episode three, which will look at how Paul responds to this situation in his letter, known as 1 Thessalonians in the New Testament. This episode is part of series one (”Paul and his Communities”) of the Religions of the Ancient Mediterranean podcast.
