Paul Reconsidered
Reading the Apostle Paul's Letters in Their True LightBy Daniel Schwartz
Length1h 54m
About this audiobook
Paul was a first-century Jewish apostle — a self-described "Pharisee of Pharisees," trained in the Hebrew scriptures, raised speaking Aramaic, and writing in Greek — whose letters have shaped Western civilization for two thousand years, yet are among the most consistently misread documents in history. Each of his letters was written to one specific congregation, at one specific moment, responding to problems those communities were already experiencing; he addressed what was broken or disputed, not what was already understood and practiced well — meaning his silences tell us almost nothing, and his most urgent statements were pastoral responses to local crises rather than universal laws.
