Description

A slow rumbling, that has been building up among New Testament scholars for the past twenty years, is only now beginning to make its effects felt on a more general public.

A new Paul is beginning to emerge-one who differs from the Paul of Augustine and Luther, who is no friend to the traditional orthodoxy that has co-opted him for almost two thousand years. To help us see Paul in this new way, Scott arrives at three conclusions argued step-by-step throughout the book:Paul was calledHis concern was with the nationsPaul addresses particular situations, not a universal human conditionThe new Paul threatened Roman authorities with anti-imperial rhetoric, much of which is still operative today.

Thus, the new Paul may prove an even more radical challenge to church and society than did the historical Jesus.
