This volume completes Cambridge's successful New Testament Theology series. In keeping with the series, it explores the distinctive ideas and issues of the Epistle at greater length than is possible in commentaries or theological dictionaries. Professor Haacker focuses on themes such as righteousness, suffering and hope and the mystery of Israel in the age of the gospel. Engaging with Paul's rhetoric strategy, he shows how both ancient Rome and the spiritual heritage of Israel provide contexts for the Letter and help us to understand its message to the original readers and its abiding impact on Christianity. The book will be of interest to teachers, pastors, and students of theology and the New Testament.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Klaus Haacker</note> <subject> <topic>Bible - New Testament - Criticism, interpretation, etc</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Romans -- Theology</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">227.106</classification> <classification authority="ddc">H111-K63</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0521435358, 9780521435352</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15120/71pz2bfcql-sy466.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15120/71pz2bfcql-sy466.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071437.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
