hi!

im studying religious education at a level this year. i dont if anyone knows what Alevels are or ahev ever done them. but theyre big important exams in the united kingdom. right now, we're studying Luke, and the Early Church. for Luke, we're studying the authorship of Luke, the importance of Luke as an historian and the structure and characteristics of his Gospel. and also the Synoptic problem (which i understand).

for the early church, we're studying the Emperors that persecuted, ie- Nero, Trajan, Marcus Aurelius etc. and the origin of the church, martyrs, the spread of Christianity after Jesus died. and so on.

i was just wondering, does anyone know any good book resources. internet sites i can get info from? or even bits of info for resources i can pass onto my teacher? we're looking at works from Barclay, Conzelmann, Marshall, Chadwick and other writers like that.

anything at all wud be very much appreciated! thanks! [Smile]
