“Both Christians and Jews have much to gain from reading A Jewish Paul. Highly recommended!”
—Jon D. Levenson, Harvard University
“It is so difficult to give a historically compelling account of the apostle Paul that is, at the same time, helpful to readers of Christian Scripture and, on top of all that, readable and accessible. I know because I have tried. Now, though, I will be very happy simply to refer people to this wonderful book.”
—Matthew V. Novenson, University of Edinburgh
“Genuinely fresh, thoroughly stimulating, and highly accessible. All who consider themselves students of Paul—whether the beginner or the scholar—will find themselves engrossed in this book's pages.”
—Michael Patrick Barber, Augustine Institute Graduate School of Theology
“Thiessen offers students and scholars alike an invaluable resource: an accessible-yet-innovative introduction to a Jewish Paul, the herald of Israel's Messiah to the non-Jewish nations.”
—Rafael Rodríguez, Johnson University
“Excellent scholars who work at the cutting-edge of their field and who have a mastery of its history (as does Thiessen on Pauline studies) are sometimes unable to communicate that field to those outside of it. This book is an outstanding exception. It is as readable as it is masterful.”
—Sara Parks, St. Francis Xavier University
