Description: "Addresses the issue of how the Christianity depicted in and represented by the individual Gospels relates to the vision of Christianity represented by Paul and the Pauline writings. This raises such questions as to what extent did Paul influence the canonical and non-canonical Gospels? In what way are the Gospels reactions to Paul and his legacy? The contributors compare the Gospels and Paul on topics such as Old Testament Law, Gentile mission, Christology and early church leadership structures"--From publisher description.
