Who was the real Paul? For more than a decade there has been a renewed quest for the figure behind the Pauline letters and the Acts of the Apostles. In this important contribution to the debate, Ben Witherington provides a profile of Paul in his context as a first-century Jewish Christian and a citizen of the classical Roman world. The author engages constructively with recent scholarship in gleaning numerous fascinating insights into the Jew of Tarsus, and show how these contribute to our understanding of his writings.
