Great idea, insufficient development in 2nd half 1st half:The author really makes the character of Levi/Matthew come alive. Compelling, intriguing story of how the intelligent son once so determined to become a priest encounters a tragedy that fuels an anger towards God which motivates him to become the chief tax collector instead. In the second half of his life, he realizes how lonely he's made himself havin. Dora A. Palmieri said The TaxCollector and the Christ!. Ah! Matthew the tax collector! How did he get involved with the movement? He was hated and despised by his Jewish friends, but yet he is one of the writers of the Gospel of Jesus? How did that happen?

This is part of a series of four books that recreate a plausible scenario about how the gospels were written. I learned a good deal about the context of the times, and that makes it worth the read for me.
