How did he view the Jewish law? How did he understand the gospel of Jesus's messiahship relative to both ethnic Jews and gentiles? These remain perennial questions both to New Testament scholars and to all serious Bible readers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRespected New Testament scholar Matthew Thiessen offers an important contribution to this discussion. \u003ci\u003eA Jewish Paul\u003c\/i\u003e is an accessible introduction that situates Paul clearly within first-century Judaism, not opposed to it. Thiessen argues for a more historically plausible reading of Paul. Paul did not reject Judaism or the Jewish law but believed he was living in the last days, when Israel's Messiah would deliver the nations from sin and death. Paul saw himself as an envoy to the nations, desiring to introduce them to the Messiah and his life-giving, life-transforming Spirit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new contribution to Pauline studies will benefit professors, students, and scholars of the New Testament as well as pastors and lay readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 22, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51776500728096,"sku":"9781540966629","price":89.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/88cd009a4cdcd67c27be4af06a8507af_31560156-e645-4e5b-b085-56557a8bf04c.webp?v=1780480701","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/jewish-paul-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
