Paul was a Roman. Yes, the apostle was raised as a devout Jew and later became a Christian, but he was a citizen of the Roman Empire. He lived in a Roman world. In his Epistle to the Ephesians, Paul wrote to an audience of Christians living in a Roman world, under Roman rule. They had all seen Roman legionnaires and were familiar with the armor and weapons carried by a typical Roman soldier. As contemporary Christians, we have a tendency to picture Sir Lancelot on his horse. We are using the wrong imagery. We miss the powerful symbolism of Paul's analogy.

В истории Древнего Рима фигура Марка Туллия Цицерона одна из самых значительных и, возможно, самых трагических.

Но боги — существа переменчивые, человек в их руках — игрушка. И Рим — это не остров блаженных, Рим — это большая арена, где если не победишь ты, то соперники повергнут тебя, и часто со смертельным исходом. Козни влиятельных врагов во главе с народным трибуном Клодием, несправедливое обвинение и полтора года изгнания.

The first Christians were weird. Just how weird is often lost on today's believers. Within Roman society, the earliest Christians stood out for the oddness of their beliefs and practices.

They practiced a whole new way of thinking about and doing religion that would have been seen as bizarre and dangerous when compared to Roman religion and most other religions of the ancient world.
