Editorial Reviews
Product Description
In The Rhetoric of Romans, Neil Elliott presents a rhetorical- critical reading of the letter that indicates that Paul wrote, not to counter Jewish opponents or aspects of the Jewish religion, nor to legitimize the law-free gentile church, but to warn against elements of the Hellenistic church's Christology and an incipient Christian supersessionism that threatened the collection in Jerusalem and the heart of his apostolic work.
About the Author
Neil Elliott is Adjunct Professor at United Theological Seminary, New Brighton, Minnesota, and Chaplain at the University Episcopal Center, the University of Minnesota. Among his publications is Liberating Paul.
