This study is a fresh approach to Paul's Epistle to the Romans.
Taking Paul's Jewish background seriously, it challenges the
prevailing consensus that Paul's object in the first three chapters
is to conclude that everyone is under the power of sin. Davies
shows that in Paul's thinking there has always been a category of
the righteous, those who live by faith and express their faith in
obedience. Paul's indictment of Jews and Gentiles, therefore, is an
indictment of only the wicked among Jews and Gentiles, not of the
righteous.
