Some of the most heated contests around the apostle Paul today concern the effort to understand him wholly ‘within Judaism, ‘ and the effort to interpret him over against the culture and ideology of the early Roman Empire. In this collection of essays, Neil Elliott shows that these two conversations belong together and must be resolved together, by understanding Paul as a Jew living out Israel’s ancient hopes under the pressures of Roman imperial power.
