Edward Adams is Professor of New Testament Studies, King's College, London. He is also the author of 'Constructing the World: A Study in Paul's Cosmological Language' (2000, T&T Clark) and has co-authored 'Christianity at Corinth: The Quest for the Pauline Church'.
'Overall, this is a convincing study, which illustrates the
diversity within the Pauline churches and the corresponding
diversity in Paul's epistolary strategy. As such it warns against
any over-easy generalisations - sociological or theological - about
the meaning of certain terms in Paul's vocabulary and about the
character and development of early Pauline Christianity.' David G.
Horrell, Theology 'A worthy addition to a distinguished series.' R.
Barry Matlock, University of Sheffield, Expository Times '. . .
will surely become essential reading for all Pauline studies,
especially for research students. Accessible and thoroughgoing,
this book is to be strongly commended to librarians and supervisors
where Pauline studies are taken seriously; thoughtful preachers
will find its discussion one to enrich their understanding of
Paul.' --Peter Doble, University of Leeds, Theological Book
Review
"With this work, Adams breaks new methodological ground and
provides fresh insight into Paul's use of language in 'world
construction'." --Religious Studies Review, July 2001
