Why does 'judgment according to deeds' produce no discernible
theological tension for Paul, the apostle of justification by
faith? For students of his writings, paradox, incoherence, or
eschatological tension come more readily to mind. Paul felt no such
theological tension because there was none - neither within his own
soteriology, nor in that of the Judaism from which he learned to
speak of 'judgment according to deeds'. For both, salvation is
wholly by God's grace and the saved will be repaid (i.e. saved or
condemned) in accordance with what they have done. Thus, Paul can
promise eternal life to those who 'do good', while threatening
wrath upon the disobedient (Rom 2:6-11), and without undermining
justification by faith. This thorough 1999 examination of second
temple and pauline texts interacts with discussions of 'covenantal
nomism', justification, and the 'new perspective' on Paul to
explore the Jewishness of the apostle's theology.
