Recent release "Do You Understand What You Are Reading?" from Page Publishing author Cottrel R. Carson is a critical examination of the story of the Ethiopian eunuch and an attempt at understanding the story's ramifications to the Christian Church today. Written during a shift in attitudes towards Imperial eunuchs, the New Testament story is a crucial tale for the early days of Christianity.
WEST MEMPHIS, Ariz., Oct. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cottrel R. Carson, an ordained scholar, veteran, and Doctor of Philosophy, has completed his new book "Do You Understand What You Are Reading?": an enlightening study of a vital Biblical story detailing the early days of Christianity and the conversion of one of the first Gentile converts.
As Carson states, "This work attempts to read the Ethiopian eunuch story as part of the literature of a late antique emerging community that promoted a radically just and inclusive worldview. In Acts, the extent of the type of community Luke envisions is set forth in the words ascribed to Jesus: 'You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth' (Acts1:8c). Read in this light, the Ethiopian eunuch story is part of an unfolding narrative in which persons of diverse ethnicities join together in community as fulfillment of the words of Jesus."
Published by Page Publishing, Cottrel R. Carson's scholarly evaluation focuses on the implications the story of the Ethiopian eunuch might have by revisiting it in the historical, grammatical, and cultural contexts in which it was originally written. Readers will find enlightening conclusions based on this in-depth analysis and learn to understand what exactly this Biblical story means in a broader sense for both the early years of the Christian Church as well as in modern times.
