Theological discussions often limit the focus of this passage to God's sovereignty or Paul's defense of God's faithfulness, but less attention has been devoted to the form and style. Wallace demonstrates how Paul weaves two distinct Jewish literary forms together--lament and midrash-into a logical narrative concerning Israel's salvation. Attention is given to Paul's poetical structures, key literary terms, and use of Old Testament contexts.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">David Rains Wallace</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Romans</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Romans -- Commentaries</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Religion -- Biblical Studies -- New Testament</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">227.106</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W187-D25</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9781451482959</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/10/_639966133_140.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/10/_639966133_140.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070723.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
