Reading Paul explores the central themes of the apostle's gospel. Unlike many introductions to Paul, this one makes a contribution to the ongoing discussion of the significance of the apostle, both as an historical figure and as a contemporary voice. In this introduction to Paul and his gospel (written especially for lay readers, beginning students, and those unsure about what to make of the apostle) Gorman takes Paul seriously, as someone who speaks for God and to us. Gorman places special emphasis on the theo-political character of Paul's gospel and on its themes of cross and resurrection, multiculturalism in the church, peacemaking and nonviolence as the way of Christ. Gorman also offers a distinctive interpretation of justification by faith as participation in Christ. 'This splendid introduction to the Apostle Paul is the best book of its kind: concise, wise, insightful, thoroughly conversant with the best recent scholarship, yet thoroughly clear and readable.' Richard B. Hays, George Washington Ivey Professor of New Testament, The Divinity School, Duke University, USA 'If you could own one book on Paul this should be the one.' The Salvationist. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
