This review is from: Paul and the Torah (Paperback)
This book has some interesting approaches to the writings of Apostle Paul. Gaston has made his own translations of difficult sections of Romans and Galatians. These contain subtle adjustments, and he is correct in asserting the bias all translations bring to the table. He has numerous suggestions on passages like 2 Cor 3 and Galatians 4 that fit aspects of those passages better than other views I've encountered. The Paul was a Jew and continued to respect Torah is clear. But he didn't urge gentiles to observe it, on the contrary he said they should not. We're left with two distinct branches of one faith. I would also suggest writings of John Gager and Mark Nanos in the same vein. More academic are those of John Sanders.
