PAULUS – The Lion of God (Part One)

Saul of Tarsus was a simple Pharisee from the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew from outside the sacred city, coming from foreign lands. He was nobody important. But he was a man full of ambition to earn the respect of the Sanhedrin. Perfect to be sent on the roads, on long trips, hunting, as a zealous messenger faithful to the orders, whose hand did not tremble. José Antonio Fortea puts a face to Saint Paul in this ambitious saga of a historical novel that follows with rigor and exquisite detail the steps of the apostle: what was the daily life of a first century apostle like, what did he do from the time he got up in the morning until the night, how could he begin to preach in a city where nobody knew him and where no Gentile knew a single word about any messiah, what rites did he perform when celebrating the Eucharist, how was an evangelization trip organized financially? In this exciting novel we will discover the man of flesh and blood, the ex-Pharisee called Saul who ends up becoming Paulus, the lion of God.
