The book was presented in Rome on Tuesday, just a day after the end of the Pauline Jubilee Year. It is titled "L' Apostolo Paolo, Catechesi Paoline" (The Apostle Paul: Pauline Catechesis). "It is not a random compilation," said Cardinal Giovanni Lajolo, president of the Governor's Office for Vatican City State, "but rather an organic whole, corresponding to a carefully studied program." One year ago today, the Holy Father started a series of general audiences catechesis dedicated to St. Paul. He presented the life, thought and teaching of the apostle during most of the audiences of the Pauline Year. The 20-lesson series ended Feb. 4. Throughout these catecheses, the Pontiff considered themes such as justification, erroneous interpretations of Paul's thought, the cultural context in which he taught, and his relationship with St. Peter. Zenit Coincidentally (perhaps) Zenit today also carries a report on the release of a DVD Paul, from Tarsus to the World from HDH communications Quote: 7 chapters, 210 minutes, the most complete series on St. Paul. The story of St. Paul according to the record of its activities found in the Act of the Apostles and his letters. A wide-ranging trip that offers the viewer insight into the life and thought of the Apostle of the Gentiles by revisiting the stunning beautiful sites of its intense missionary activity: Israel, Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Crete, Cyprus, the southern Balkans, Greece, Malta and Rome. A chance to meet Paul today, discover his spiritual wealth, and allow ourselves to become caught up in his passion for announcing the Gospel.
