History & the Bible 30: Roman Republic - Part 2

in christian-trail •  7 years ago 

Here's part 30, the final lecture of Dr. John Stevenson's series on Ancient History and the Bible. This one concludes the series, and finishes the story of Rome, one of the ancient world's great powers, and probably one of the more influential background stories for the New Testament.

I shared these in the interest of providing a resource to the Steemit community to learn more about the historical context of the Bible. I think understanding the history surrounding the text provides insights that help us better understand these difficult, yet beautiful writings.
