Description: A valuable collection of C. K. Barrett's writings on Paul, the summation of a lifetime's work by the pre-eminent New Testament scholar. This book contains a number of essays, some hitherto unpublished, on historical aspects of Paul's work. Sometimes Professor Barrett takes a broad view, often he looks sharply at important topics. Many of the themes are familiar, but Barrett always illuminates them from new angles, formulating fresh questions and approaches. A new and extensive introductory essay examines the relation of Paul to Christian leaders in Jerusalem.

Review Summary: Confusing

Details: This "book" is a collection of essays. The essays don't flow together and the context or occassion for the essays are difficult to discern. Unless you are fluent in German, Greek, French, and Latin--you're going to have a difficult time reading this book. Barrett provides no translation for paragraphs in foreign languages. This is a really tough read.
