<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>James D. G. Dunn has been one of the most<br/>influential New Testament scholars of the late 20th and early 21st<br/>centuries. His works have altered the very way biblical theologians<br/>view Jesus and Paul. This book is written in gratitude of his influence<br/>and mentorship. The focus of the work parallels the major research of<br/>Dunn's career. It emphasizes the life and teachings of Jesus as<br/>remembered by his disciples, the new perspective on Paul, teachings in<br/>the Pauline letters, and relevant topics related to ancient Judaism, <br/>the Law, Soteriology and Christology in the New Testament. <br /><br />In<br/>2005 another festschrift for James D. G. Dunn's 65th birthday was published<br/>with essays by Professor Dunn's many colleagues and friends. In this<br/>volume, a new generation of scholars, who are being widely recognized<br/>in their own contributions and publications, now honour their former teacher<br/>and demonstrate to the scholastic community the breadth of his<br/>influence.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'The clarity and accessability of the arguments is impressive.' churchtimes.co.uk<br><br>"Colleagues, former students, and others around the world influenced by British New Testament scholar Dunn present 17 essays pivoting on the two central figures in the establishment of Christianity.
