Reviews for Paul: Life, Setting, Work, Letters
‘If you could take only one volume to help you in your study of Paul and his letters, a companion to Paul, and indispensable vade-mecum for your journey with Paul, then this could be it - as well informed and as informative and authoritative as one could wish for.' - James D.G. Dunn, Lightfoot Professor Emeritus, University of Durham, UK
James D.G. Dunn ‘This book presents the current state of research on all aspects of Paul's life, his work and his theology. It will be welcomed by scholars, teachers and students as a textbook and reference work.' - Udo Schnelle, Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Germany
Udo Schnelle Summarized.
New Testament Abstracts
This book, divided into three parts, provides a thorough introduction to Paul’s life and work... Charts and tables throughout give this volume a textbook feel. It is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and will be most useful in courses on the life and letters of Paul. As an English translation of the German original, another key benefit is that it makes available the perspectives of a number of German scholars to non-German speaking students.
