Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pauline and Other Studies in Early Christian History
IN the Second Edition a detail is corrected in p. 261 (involving a slight modification in the former Preface, lines 8 the misplacement of Plate XII., XIII. Is rectified, Plate II., p. 160, is set upright, and several other slight improvements are made. The recent discovery at Delphi of an inscription which is said to prove that Gallio was Proconsul of Achaia in a.d. 52, confirms in a very satisfactory way the chronology advocated in the fourteenth paper of this volume (differing only in one or two very slight details from that adopted in St. Paul tile Travel/er). If Gallio was Proconsul in 52, it can hardly be doubted that the eighteen months of Paul's residence in Corinth extended from Autumn 51 to Spring 53.
