New Perspective on Paul

New Perspective on Paul by Michael Bruce Thompson. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781851745180.

The so-called New Perspective suggests that traditional Protestant understandings of Paul, shaped by the Reformation, need revising-in particular the contrast between faith and works. This clear study outlines fundamental aspects of the New Perspective, evaluates whether it is a threat or a help, and sets out a fresh understanding of Paul and his theology. Its an essential guide for anyone wanting to get to grips with Pauls teaching in the light of recent study.
