Description
Dr Anderson Scott examines St Paul's conception of Christianity. He shows that the influence of Hellenistic thought on St Paul's interpretation of Christianity was negligible and that the content of his teaching was derived almost exclusively from Judaism.
Reviews'Dr Scott's well-proportioned study of St Paul's teaching keeps in view the strangely divergent interpretations which have found acceptance in modern times and aims at correcting one-sided views by a more comprehensive survey of his thought ... We are indebted to Dr Scott for a very valuable exposition of the Gospel which Paul preached.' The Journal of Theological Studies 'An able and scholarly volume to be read and pondered by all those who are concerned about the vital interests of evangelical religion.' Methodist Times 'This book gives us so much ... Its main positions are cogently set forth and are, we think, extraordinarily sane and wise ... Dr Scott has come very near to achieving the great short book on Pauline doctrine.' Guardian
