Publisher's summary

This small but provoking book provides five passages from the writings of Paul of Tarsus, better known as St. Paul. These passages raise several issues relevant for us today:
  1. The priority of charity or love: 1 Corinthians 13:1-3;
  2. Going beyond social status: Galatians 3:28;
  3. Avoiding strife: Galatians 5:19-26;
  4. A surprising inclusivity: Romans 11:25-27;
  5. The victory of humility: Philippians 2:5-11.

Each passage is presented in the eloquent King James or Authorized Version of the New Testament and is followed by brief commentary focused on the contemporary significance of the passage. This book does not provide a historical commentary on the passages--that is the work of the many fine biblical commentaries already available such as the Oxford Bible Commentary and of excellent annotated study Bibles such as The Harper Collins Study Bible, The New Oxford Annotated Bible, and The Catholic Study Bible. As with the other books in the series 5 Lessons from Great Thinkers, the goal is to invite the reader to thoughtfully consider or reconsider the contemporary significance of these passages and to further explore the writings of a particular thinker. This book is suitable for persons from all religious traditions or none.

For further insight on Paul, see Paul and Roman Slavery Under Nero's Rule (2022) also by Oswald Sobrino at Amazon.
