Synopsis

St Paul was the first theologian of the Christian movement. Even the greatest of his successors knew they were building on foundations laid by him. This volume, written by one of the pre-eminent experts on Paul, takes the reader back to the earliest days of Christianity - a time before even the Gospels were written. C. K. Barrett concentrates on Paul as a Christian thinker. He traces the development and content of his teachings in a clear and comprehensive way and demonstrates that Paul's thought evolved out of the controversies in which he was engaged. Basing his book on detailed exegesis of relevant passages and using the whole corpus of Pauline letters, Barrett provides an indispensable introduction to Paul.
