"Hendrikus Boers' new book is a profound investigation in the Pauline letters—challenging American as well as European scholarship. Analyzing the key-texts, he finds his own path to understand Paul's theology—though well aware of the history of interpretations that has mediated the texts to us." —Professor Dieter H. Luhrmann, Philipps-Universität Marburg "Boers' use of discourse analysis advances both the study of Galatians and Romans and our understanding of Paul. He does not use the letters to illustrate or advance the method, but uses the method to illumine the letters. Instead of explaining Paul's thoughts, Boers probes for the Apostle's meaning by attending to his thinking, which at a deep level he finds to be fully consistent and remarkably pertinent also today. In guiding the reader step by step, Boers shows that theological exegesis requires—and rewards—thinking with Paul about the subject matter. So does thinking with Boers as he thinks with Paul." —Leander E. Keck, Yale University, The Divinity School "In this learned and provocative study, Boers challenges a number of long-held ideas about Paul's view of justification, and in addition makes important proposals about the character and coherence of the apostle's thought overall. This is a book that serious students of Paul will need to take seriously." —Victor Paul Furnish, Perkins school of Theology "In these days when there is no shortage of books on law in Paul's letters to the Galatians and Romans, this work is a refreshing breeze. Well-argued, imaginative, and insightful, this monograph makes a compelling case for an understanding of justification in Paul that, while negating religious privilege, is neither anti-Jewish nor antinomian. Methodologically bold and tested in the classroom, this book offers a significant advance in the discussion of a continuing problem in Pauline theology." —Calvin J.
