Who was Gamaliel the Elder—the revered Jewish teacher of the Apostle Paul, the respected Pharisee who defended the apostles, and the mysterious figure honoured as a saint in Christian tradition? The Hidden Life of Gamaliel investigates the ancient belief that Rabban Gamaliel was not merely sympathetic to the followers of Yeshua, but may have been a secret disciple who remained within the Jewish leadership to protect the emerging Church. In the Book of Acts, Gamaliel warns the Sanhedrin not to destroy the apostles, declaring that if their work is from God, it cannot be overthrown.
