N.T. Wright is Research Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at the University of St Andrews. He has written over forty books, including the monumental Jesus and the Victory of God (1996) and The Resurrection of the Son of God (2003). He is also the author of the popular 'For Everyone' guides to the New Testament and the best-selling Simply Christian, Surprised by Hope, Virtue Reborn, Simply Jesus and How God Became King (all published by SPCK). Tom Wright is Research Professor Emeritus of New Testament and Early Christianity at the University of St Andrews and Senior Research Fellow at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford. He is the author of more than 80 influential books, including The New Testament for Everyone, Simply Christian, Surprised by Hope, The Day the Revolution Began, Paul: A biography, The New Testament in its World, On Earth as in Heaven and Into the Heart of Romans (all published by SPCK).
Tom Wright's long-awaited full-length study of St Paul will not in
any way disappoint the high expectations that surround it. From the
very first sentence, it holds the attention, arguing a strong,
persuasive, coherent and fresh case, supported by immense
scholarship and comprehensive theological intelligence. It is a
worthy successor to his earlier magisterial studies of the themes
of the Kingdom and the Resurrection: lively, passionate and deeply
constructive, laying out very plainly the ways in which the faith
of the New Testament is focused on God's purpose to re-create,
through the fact of Jesus crucified and risen, our entire
understanding of authority and social identity.
