Paul within Judaism : Perspectives on Paul and Jewish Identity This conference volume features cutting edge research from an international cohort of scholars on the still controversial debates regarding Pauls relationship with Judaism. Taken together the contributions represent a sympathetic but critical assessment of the Paul within Judaism approach to Pauline interpretation. They take up many of the key questions germane to the debate including different perspectives on Jewish identity ethnicity Torah observance halakha the relationship between Jewish and non Jewish followers of Christ and the contested character of Jewish identity in antiquity. By combining a broad swath of both German and English language scholarship the volume attempts to bring different perspectives into conversation with each other.Survey of contentsMichael Bird: An Introduction to the Paul within Judaism Debate – Karl Wilhelm Niebuhr: Agencies of Grace in Paul and James: Two Jewish Voices – Jörg Frey: The Relativization of Ethnicity and Circumcision in Paul and His Communities – Josh Garroway: Messy Metaphors: Ethnic Transformation in Philo Romans and Ephesians – Brian Rosner: Apostle to the Gentiles from Israel: The Jewish Roots of Pauls Identity and Mission – Chris Porter: Which Paul Whose Judaism – A Socio Cognitive Approach to Paul within Judaism – David Starling: »Those who were not my people«: Pauls Gentile Churches and the Story of Israel J.
