Material type: Text

TextSeries: Publication details: New York, NY : Meridian Books, 1957.Description: 190 p. ; 19 cmSubject(s):

Bible N.T. Epistle of Paul -- Theology

DDC classification:

227.06

Contents:

From Jesus to Paul -- A citizen of no mean city -- The hope of the world -- The quest of the divine commonwealth -- The ancient wrong -- The tyranny of an idea -- The son of God -- The decisive battle -- Emancipation -- The Lord the Spirit -- The divine commonwealth discovered -- The life of the divine commonwealth -- Appendix: a letter from Paul to the missionary to the society of Christians in Rome.

Summary: Using the Pauline Epistles as his basis, the author seeks not only to assess the role of Paul in the history of religion but to examine and define the permanent significance of his thought, to describe the relevance of Paul to the disorder of modern life, and to make clear the bases of the apostolic religious community for which Paul strived. This book is therefore not only a brilliant and significant commentary on the Pauline literature, but a daring attempt to establish the contemporaneity of its teaching.
