Review:
''N.T. Wright's long-awaited full-length study of St Paul will not in any way disappoint the high expectations that surround it. From the very first sentence, it holds the attention, arguing a strong, persuasive, coherent and fresh case, supported by immense scholarship and comprehensive theological intelligence.'' --Rowan Williams, Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge
''Breath-taking, mind-expanding, ground-breaking and more - it is easy to run out of adjectives to describe what N.T. Wright has already accomplished in his multi-volume account of New Testament history and theology. This fourth volume in the series is likewise a game-changer, above all for its adventurous presentation of Paul's 'mindset' and theology, so thoroughly contextualized at the confluence of the apostle's Jewish, Roman and Greek worlds. This is Wright at his best - part historian, part exegete, part theologian, part pedagogue.'' --Joel B. Green, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, Fuller Theological Seminary, California
''Written with elegance and humour, full of detailed exegesis and engaging with a wide range of contemporary scholarship, this major achievement will be a landmark in the field of Pauline studies for many years to come.'' --David G. Horrell, Professor of New Testament Studies, University of Exeter
