This book breaks new ground in offering an exposition of the
theological message of the Shorter Pauline Letters. Karl P.
Donfried expounds the theology of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, examining
the cultural setting of these letters and the particular milieu in
which their distinctive themes took shape. He shows that the notion
of election is a key theme in the Thessalonian correspondence,
while both letters have important things to say to people in our
own day about Christ, about forgiveness, and about a sanctifying
God who pours out his Spirit. I. Howard Marshall's study of
Philippians brings out especially the understanding of the
theological basis of the Christian life which underlies the letter,
while his discussion of Philemon emphasises how the main theme of
the letter is the relation between the gospel and Christian ethics;
the implications of Paul's teaching on slavery are considered in a
manner which goes much further than the surface of the text might
imply.
