St. Paul on Trial: What the Jury Never Heard

Paul was accused of teaching the Jews to forsake Moses (Acts 21:21), and he stood trial for it more than once. Nearly two thousand years later the charge is still made, and both sides quote his letters. This book puts the evidence on the table, letter by letter, and lets Paul answer in his own words. Read it on a trip or listen on the road, and reach your own verdict.

“I am a Pharisee, a son of a Pharisee” (Acts 23:6). Paul said this standing before the council in Jerusalem, many years after he met Yeshua on the Damascus road. He did not say “I was.”

So did Paul abolish the Torah he had kept all his life? This book lets him answer in his own words. Claim by claim, it sets the most common teachings about Paul beside what he and the other apostles actually wrote:

• How a sinner is made righteous by grace through faith, and what the righteous are then called to walk in

• Repentance in the Torah and the prophets, long before the New Testament

• Galatians 3:10 and who is really “under a curse”

• Can the commandments be kept? What Moses, Yeshua, and John say

• Two women and two covenants, the yoke, and the days and months in Galatians

• What Hebrews says was at fault, and what the Spirit writes on the heart

Every Scripture passage is quoted in full from the Yeshua Literal Version (YLV), with the key Hebrew and Greek words explained in plain English.
