Description
Summary:N. T. Wright is a widely published author with a large following among those interested in his field of New Testament. In 2011 he published a translation of the New Testament: The New Testament for Everyone. Over some decades Wright has also published on the doctrine of justification, and the insights he feels he has gained are enshrined in his translation. However, a careful comparison of how he has handled the doctrine of justification in Galatians and Romans with what Paul actually wrote, reveals a number of weaknesses in his translation approach as well as an idiosyncratic understanding of the apostle’s concept of justification.
