The Letters of Paul Sixth Edition: Conversations in Context

This is the sixth edition of the classic textbook that has been introducing Paul and his writing to seminary and undergraduate students for over forty years. Roetzel provides a comprehensive look at Paul in light of recent scholarship and theological understandings of Paul. This new edition includes four brand-new sections on the following: the chronology of Pauls letters; Pauls concept of law in the context of messianic expectation; the religious and political contexts in which Pauls letters were written; and Jewish understandings of Gentiles and Pauls mission to include them among the elect of God. This long-established textbook is the ideal choice for any student of Paul.
