"Uncovering the real person behind the letters, this is a revealing new introduction to Paul, the ardent Jew who became 'Apostle to the Gentiles' and arguably the most significant of all Christian thinkers." "Offering a sensitive reassessment of a man often labelled 'misogynist', 'conservative' and even 'antisemitic', renowned scholar Morna D. Hooker reconstructs the beliefs, ethics and teachings of Paul. Her account draws on a wealth of documentary material, looking closely at Paul's Jewish heritage and its impact on his message and mission."--BOOK JACKET.
