The Pastoral Letters have often been marginalised in modern New
Testament studies. Regarded as not authentically Pauline, not very
theological, and mostly evidence of the church settling down in the
world, their patriarchal orientation has more recently futher
alienated readers. Yet it was these little letters which mediated
Paul to the Patristic church, and then provided scriptural material
for debate about church order and ministry from the Reformation to
the present. This study attempts to re-read the Pastorals in their
original setting, revising many of the standard scholarly
assessments in the light of recent work (especially developments in
sociological study of the New Testament), and exploring the
development of a tradition which proves to be theological in its
fundamental structure and in its mode of addressing practical and
organisational issues. The letters are then related to the very
different context of the modern world.
