Paul and the New Perspective

<DIV>Understanding Paul and his conversion to Christianity is imperative for a thorough knowledge of the New Testament. In <I>Paul and the New Perspective</I> Seyoon Kim develops his argument that the origin of Paul's gospel lies in two places-his radical conversion at Damascus and his usage of the Jesus tradition in light of Damascus.<br><br>This new way of looking at Paul further explains how Paul made strong distinctions between the Spirit and the flesh/law with further implications for his doctrine of justification. A departure from the New Perspective School represented by James D. G. Dunn Kim's <I>Paul and the New Perspective</I> offers a thorough and extensive argument for the foundation of the gospel that Paul spread in the first century.</DIV>
