Description for Paul and the Stories of Israel: Grand Thematic Narratives in Galatians
Hardback. A. Andrew Das reviews six proposals for "grand thematic narratives" behind the logic of Galatian. Das weighs each of these proposals exegetically and finds them wanting, examples of what Samuel Sandmel famously labelled "parallelomania." Das reflects on the risks of seeking comprehensive stories behind Paul's letters and offers a path forward. Num Pages: 240 pages. BIC Classification: 1FBH; HRCC1; HRCF2; HRCG. Category: (UF) Further/Higher Education. Dimension: 162 x 237 x 23. Weight in Grams: 582.
