Building on his 2004 Hulsean Lectures, Wright sheds new light on Paul---his world, legacy, and theology. The Bishop of Durham discusses the apostle's Jewish roots, attitude toward the Roman Empire, and experience of the risen Christ; and summarizes the main theological contours of Paul's thought---monotheism, election, and eschatology---and their relevance for the contemporary church. 195 pages, softcover from Fortress.
