In the present study, Eric C. Moore offers a fresh response to this much-debated question, arguing for the utility of ancient colonization as an analytic lens for reading Acts, a story about the origins and replication of early Christianity. He explores how in narrating his account, Luke draws on a common stock of \"foundation\" motifs employed by ancient sources, textual and material alike, to glorify community beginnings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mohr Siebeck","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47889200054423,"sku":"9783161569852","price":12760.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783161569852.webp?v=1781174884","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/claiming-places-reading-acts-through-the-lens-of-ancient-colonization-9783161569852","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
