内容説明

Many forms of magic and paganism were practiced at the time of Jesus. This text explains what they were and how the first Christians reacted to them. Included are accounts of the many experiences of the first Christians recorded in Acts such as Peter encountering the Samaritan magician Simon, and in Athens Paul finds the city full of idols but also discovers an altar "to an unknown god".
