Corresponding Sense - Paul, Dialectic, and Gadamer

"Corresponding Sense" investigates various issues to do with the study of Paul in the New Testament from the perspective of Hans-Georg Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics. Alongside theoretical and practical development of Gadamer's philosophy, the book deals with the following New Testament topics: assumptions concerning the background story of the letter to Philemon, the foundation of the Colossian church and the route of Paul's third missionary 'journey', rhetorical strategy in the presentation of Paul and Barnabas's first missionary journey, Paul's interaction with Egyptian religion in Romans, and the relation of the letter of James to Paul's theology and career.
