Summary:The relationship between Paul and the Jesus tradition is a central issue in New Testament scholarship. Although it is customary to look for Gospel traditions in the Pauline epistles, an opposite approach would better fit the chronology of the sources.

This essay examines the possibility of viewing Paul as a source of the Gospels.
