Description
Paul's letters are the earliest surviving Christian writings and therefore the earliest documentary evidence for what Jesus' followers knew and said about him. The present volume deals with questions frequently asked about Paul, examines what can be known about Jesus from Paul's letters, and enquires how Paul himself interpreted Jesus' significance. A closing chapter considers how several writers in the Pauline tradition variously continued and altered the apostle's views about Jesus.
Reviews"...an excellent little book for understanding Jesus as evidenced in the writings of Paul and the later 'Pauline School' authors of the New Testament...This book should be useful either for group or individual Bible study and is well worth reading." Dr. Ralph T. Palmer, The Disciple
