Synopsis

As the Apostle to the Gentiles and the author of the letters that form the basis of Christian theology, Paul is rightly recognized as one of the most powerful figures in the history of the Church. In this short introduction, internationally renowned New Testament scholar, E. P. Sanders, considers the influence of Paul's Jewish background and missionary activity on the development of his teaching.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Paul is the most powerful human personality in the history of the Church. A missionary, theologian, and religious genius, in his epistles he laid the foundations on which later Christian theology was built. In his highly original introduction to Paul's life and thought, E. P. Sanders, whose research on Paul has substantially influenced recent scholarship, pays equal attention to Paul's fundamental convictions and the sometimes convoluted ways in which they were worked out.

These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly.
