Paul’s letter to the church in Rome addresses key issues with respect to the development of a Christian community. Paul writes to a community he did not found and advises them on key issues of faith and righteousness. Paul also requests their prayers for his own work. The letter has much to impart about the nature of both faith and apostleship and how these themes function with respect to Christian identity.
In this Social Identity Commentary, William S. Campbell provides a comprehensive coverage of the issues and concerns related to Romans from the perspective of social identity. Campbell outlines his interpretation of the theoretical issues concerned, and then applies this to provide a clear overview of historical and critical issues related to the study of Romans. This provides a clear engagement with the text that will serve as a useful resource for scholars, students, clergy, and people interested in the formation and purpose of the letter.
