Overview

Designed to meet the needs of contemporary evangelical undergraduates, this survey textbook offers an engaging introduction to Paul's Letters in their literary, theological, and canonical contexts.

Constantine Campbell, a recognized Pauline and Greek scholar, explores Paul's letters with an eye to fitting them within the life, ministry, and theology of the apostle Paul. Campbell reflects on the reception history of Paul's letters, presents them in the context of the apostle's missionary journeys, and fits the Pauline corpus within the larger story and tradition of Christian Scripture. The book also covers the book of Acts as it relates to Paul's letters.

Beautifully designed in full color with an abundance of maps, sidebars, images, and other visual aids to hold interest and aid learning, this addition to the Reading Christian Scripture series offers a faith-friendly introduction to students of Paul's Letters. Additional resources for instructors and students are available through Textbook eSources.
