Apocalyptic Letter to the Galatians - Paul and the Enochic Heritage

In this book, James M. Scott argues that there is an essential continuity between the letter to the Galatians and Paul's Jewish past, and that Paul uses the Epistle of Enoch (1 Enoch 92-105) as a literary model for his own letter.
