Acts of the Apostles

In an Easter homily delivered

401 C.E., Bishop John

Chrysostom (as part of

a sermon series) called

the ACTS of the APOSTLES

a "strange and new dish" and

complained that "there are many

to whom this book is not even

known, and many again think

it so plain that they slight it.  Thus

to some their ignorance, to others

their knowledge is the cause of

the neglect" (Homilies on Acts

#1).

from Blackwell Commentary - by Heidi J.

Hornik The Acts of the Apostles through

the Centuries (2017, Wiley-Blackwell)
