The Theology of Paul in Three Dimensions

“This sophisticated engagement with Paul’s thinking by an outstanding exegete will take thoughtful readers deep into the meaning of myth, evil, sacrifice, atonement, reconciliation, and Israel, and should challenge specialists to revisit familiar themes in their relevance for contemporary theology.”


—Robert Morgan, Linacre College, University of Oxford“There is no other theology of Paul like this. It is deeply informed by over thirty years of university teaching. In seeing Paul in terms of dogmatics, it is an overview of Christian theology. In truth-seeking, it asks if Paul was right on such matters as sexuality, slavery, and salvation by grace. It takes theology to be an honest, critical reflection on a life of piety. This book is a gift to us.”


—Graham H. Twelftree, London School of Theology
