Summary, etc.: | "This is a book that begins with a dramatic reference to Karl Barth, arguing that he was correct in bringing Paul to the front news page, but then the book is more insistent with placing evolution as the most important question before us. Paul is brought into a new, contemporary, and important the conversation. Crossan then gets more complicated, especially with Luke-Acts, unearthing a sequence and connections, to lead the reader to a breakthrough about about what Luke-Acts has done to Paul's vision. The vision needs to be righted, and Crossan move the reader forward with the contrast between resurrection and ascension, to bring the "now" moment of our time, suggesting a vision from antiquity that tosses things upside down"-- Provided by publisher. |
