One Act of One Apostle

The Sad Case of Ananias & Sapphira

Is it a good thing, is it helpful, to be able to look at things from a different perspective, a story for example? I found in my father’s papers a version of two chapters of Kings written from the point of view of a prophet or priest of Ba’al. This is not quite so extreme, I don’t think, to tell the story of Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5) — perhaps my least favorite in all of Scripture — from the point of view of their nephew, definitely not a Ba’alist though admittedly no longer on The Way after this incident.
