The aim of this book is to provide some explanation for some of Paul’s writings which are seen by many modern scholars as difficult and cannot be applied in our modern-day life. It is without doubt that comprehending historical, sociological, and cultural contexts of scripture is important for interpretation. The way Paul lived and the things that he taught establishes this further.
Richards and O’Brien try to answer major criticism against Paul such as Paul was racist, chauvinistic, supported slavery and twisted scripture to match his theology. The authors of this book answer the criticism against Paul with culturally and sociologically informed analysis that allows for understanding Paul in a new perspective. This book is an excellent answer
