Simon the Zealot

"Simon the Zealot" is a non-fiction book that focuses on the figure of the apostle Simon the Zealot, who is mentioned in the Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles. Despite his mention in biblical texts, Simon remains one of the lesser-known personalities among the apostles of Jesus. The book provides an in-depth analysis and historical perspective on Simon, whose name appears in the synoptic Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles, yet contains only sparse information about his life and work. The authors Lambert M. Surhone, Miriam T. Timpledon, and Susan F. Marseken have made an effort to compile the few available details about Simon and place them in a context that is significant for both those interested in biblical history and academic readers. The work is published in a paperback edition and offers a solid foundation for understanding this mysterious apostolic figure.
