This significant book contains essays on Pauline thought and theology that span some twenty-five years, placing themes and issues in a broad chronological context of academic discussion. In addition to discussing major Pauline themes, 1 Thessalonians in its religious and cultural context in particular, Kark Donfried raises the question of Paul's Jewishness with a fresh urgency and opens new perspectives on the origins of early Christianity and its relationship to Second Temple Judaism.
