Beskrivning

This new work aimed at upper level undergraduates provides an invaluable handbook for students seriously engaging with Paul's life, letters and context. This new coursebook assesses Paul from four key areas. This book is written by several co-authors, all experts in their given fields, to give the most up-to-date and accurate information to readers - but also to present a sense of authorial continuity throughout the book. This book is divided into three main parts; the environment, life, work and person of Paul; Paul's letters and theological themes; and, the reception of Paul and his letters. As such it provides a comprehensive overview of scholarship on Paul and is the perfect handbook for the serious student wishing to engage with some of the most important writings in the New Testament. This book features maps, tables, text-boxes, up-to-date bibliographies and key points are identified throughout.

Recensioner i media

This book, divided into three parts, provides a thorough introduction to Paul’s life and work... Charts andtables throughout give this volume a textbook feel. It is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and will be most useful in courses on the life and letters of Paul. As an English translation of the German original, another key benefit is that it makes available the perspectives of a number of German scholars to non-German speaking students.
