Descripción
Sumario:This article examines the particularly Jewish elements in Paul's presentation of the Gospel in his letter to the Romans. It argues that these often neglected elements contribute to the Empire-critical thrust of the letter. Precisely because of its Jewish roots and clothing, Paul's Gospel challenges the claims of Rome. The article first discusses some recent anti-Imperial readings of Romans. It then summarises these Jewish elements and their critical function vis-á-vis the claims of the Empire, ever present in Rome. A final section draws out the implications of this particularly Jewish counter-narrative for the study of Romans, Pauline theology as well as church and society at large.
