In this episode, Rob and Vinnie address the background of the Gospel of Luke in order to help us understand this Gospel. They address the Roman system of patronage and how that impacted the poor and marginalized in the Roman world and how Jesus enters that world and demands that His followers turn it upside down.
Here is a link to Warren Carter's book The Roman Empire: an Essential Guide Carter has a number of works that provide research into the economic and social background of the Roman Empire
Here is a link to the Amazon page with series of books "A week in the life of . . ."
