He offers a new appraisal of Paul's theology of the Christ-event as gift as it comes to expression in Galatians and Romans, and he presents a nuanced and detailed discussion of the history of reception of Paul. This exegetically responsible, theologically informed, hermeneutically useful book shows that a respectful, though not uncritical, reading of Paul contains resources that remain important for Christians today.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49731850436881,"sku":"NGR9780802875327","price":48.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50613650784529,"sku":"GOR011428902","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0802875327.jpg?v=1750882652","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/paul-and-the-gift-book-john-m-g-barclay-9780802875327","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
