Interpreting the Pauline Letters: An Exegetical Handbook - Handbooks for New Testament Exegesis

The inaugural volume in the Handbooks for New Testament Exegesis series, Interpreting the Pauline Letters begins by exploring the components of narrative - setting, characterization, and plot - and then develops the foremost theological themes in each of the books traditionally ascribed to Paul.The method sets the task of exegesis within the literary context of first-century letters as well as the theological context of major themes present in Paul's letters.The book goes beyond exegesis to discuss strategies for communicating the central truths of Paul's first-century messages to a twenty-first-century audience. Each chapter includes a list of helpful resources to the step of interpretation discussed.A glossary defining technical words and samples of moving from exegesis to proclamation make this guide practical and user-friendly.Designed as a handbook for seminary and graduate students, the book provides a go-to guide that will also serve seminary-trained pastors, upper-level college students, and well-motivated lay people.As readers work through this handbook, they will begin to see and interpret the narrative writings as Paul intended them to be understood.
