The "new perspective" on Paul, an approach that seeks to
reinterpret the apostle Paul and his letters against the backdrop
of first-century Judaism, has been criticized by some as not having
value for ordinary Christians living ordinary lives. In this
volume, world-renowned scholars explore the implications of the new
perspective on Paul for the Christian life and church. James D. G.
Dunn, N. T. Wright, Bruce Longenecker, Scot McKnight, and other
leading New Testament scholars offer a response to this question:
How does the apostle Paul understand the Christian life? The book
makes a fresh contribution to the new perspective on Paul
conversation and offers important new insights into the orientation
of the Christian life.
This volume will unpack the seven allegations proposed by Scot
McKnight in his article 'Calling Jesus Mamzer' in the inaugural
volume of The Journal for the Historical Jesus (Volume 1.1 2003:
73-103). Each essay will explore the historicity of each accusation
and what they tell us about Jesus. McKnight and Modica propose that
by examining these specific allegations, one can begin to
comprehend a neglected dimension of historical Jesus studies,
namely, that Jesus can be understood by what his opponents
(critics) say of him. They contend that such an approach offers, as
Malina and Neyrey have previously examined in Calling Jesus Names,
a 'Christology from the side'. There will be an introductory and
concluding essay from the editors.
