Review:
Honourable mention in 'The Interview' in Connexion, 1st June 2010.
"An exceptionally fine presentation of Pauline theology - detailed yet clear, lavishly documented yet readable; a major contribution to clarification and order in this confused and controversial field of study." C. F. D. Moule "Dunn assembles his classic, distinctive handiwork in a format that is seamless in its flow, up to date in its scholarship, and (as ever) easily accessible in its presentation.... As a resource book for the study of what Paul had to say on any particular topic, this book is unequalled, as one of the most important of modern Pauline scholars assesses the texts in his own distinguished way." Anvil "Surely this is James Dunn's best book so far. His magisterial, lucid exposition of Paul's thought will be welcomed warmly by scholars, teachers, and students alike. This is a work of outstanding scholarship: there is no comparable book in English." Graham N. Stanton ..".provides valuable food for prayer and for thought...worth attentive reading from cover to cover." Priests and People "This careful exposition of the theology of Paul is a brilliant piece of biblical scholarship." D. Eduard Lohse "Paul has not infrequently had a bad press in the past century, and he has not escaped the current taste for deconstruction and the hermeneutic of suspicion. Once again we are hearing him dismissed as the Hellenistic subverter of the gospel of Jesus. Dunn's willingness to hear him on his own terms and to enter into dialogue with the whole sweep of his theology is an object lesson in how to deal with that sort of partiality; it can be recommended alike to waverers and to the committed." Affirming Catholicism "This present volume is sure to remain a classic on the theology of Paul for a long time to come. It is from the hand of a scholar who over three decades has produced outstanding studies on the New Testament, and on the writings and though of Paul in particular it is essential reading. It is a book for all libraries and individuals interested in Paul s messa

In this major work, James D. G. Dunn brings together more than two decades of vigorous and creative work on interpreting the letters of Paul into an integrated, full-scale study of Paul's thought.
Using Paul's letter to the Romans as the foundation for constructing a fuller exposition of Paul's whole theology, Dunn's thematic treatment clearly describes Paul's teaching on such topics as God, humankind, sin, christology, salvation, the church, and the Christian life. In the process Dunn engages in a concise way what other important scholars have said regarding each area of inquiry.
"The Theology of Paul the Apostle" represents a major contribution to the ongoing discussion regarding what Paul's theology is and what its continuing relevance is to the study and practice of religion and theology.
