Description
Summary:This essay offers a sampling of recent Jewish interpretations of the Apostle Paul in the last thirty years. Attention is given to the works of Pinchas Lapide, Hyam Maccoby, Alan F. Segal, Daniel Boyarin, Mark D. Nanos and Pamela M. Eisenbaum including a survey of their scholarship and an assessment of their contribution and significance for Pauline studies. This study concludes that Jewish interpretation of Paul remains highly diverse and there is not likely to be a Jewish `reclamation' of Paul in the foreseeable future.
