Paul in Chains: Roman Imprisonment and the Letters of St. Paul

by Richard J. Cassidy, Paul the Apostle

Richard J. Cassidy sheds new light on this relation between the earliest Christians and Roman authorities. Cassidy successfully challenges the assumption that Paul had a single view of secular power by showing how St. Paul's chains and his imprisonment influenced him over time to change his views about Roman rule.
