Paul and Time Life in the Temporality of Christ L. Ann Jervis Foreword by John Barclay

This major contribution to an ongoing debate about Paul’s theology suggests that Paul thought not in terms of two ages but in terms of life in this age or life in Christ.

“Jervis provokes reflection not only on Paul’s view of time but on his Christology, soteriology, and ecclesiology. Her startling proposals require and repay careful attention by all serious students of Paul’s letters.” —BEVERLY ROBERTS GAVENTA, Princeton Theological Seminary (emerita) “This rigorous and challenging book charts a new course in Pauline interpretation. Essential reading for all serious students of Paul’s gospel.” —SUSAN G. EASTMAN, Duke Divinity School (emerita)

L. Ann Jervis (ThD, Wycliffe College) is emerita professor of New Testament at Wycliffe College, University of Toronto.
