Robinson draws on a variety of sources to provide a rich and nuanced portrayal of Paul, including the New Testament epistles attributed to him, the Acts of the Apostles, and other historical and literary works from the ancient world.Throughout the book, Robinson explores the complex theological and cultural issues that shaped Paul's life and teachings, such as his views on the relationship between Judaism and Christianity, his understanding of the role of women in the church, and his emphasis on the importance of faith and grace.
