This major contribution to Pauline scholarship by a widely-respected New Testament scholar is the culmination of over forty years of teaching on Paul. Brendan Byrne demonstrates that topics often discussed in Pauline studies and Christian theology go astray when the significance of the last judgment falls from view. Offering a fresh Catholic perspective that engages with centuries of Protestant interpretation, this book recaptures the significance of the motif of the last judgment for the interpretation of Paul.
Brendan Byrne, SJ (DPhil, Oxford University), is professor emeritus at the University of Divinity in Melbourne, Australia, and a member of the Australian Academy of the Humanities. He taught New Testament for over four decades at Jesuit Theological College. A former member of the Pontifical Biblical Commission, he has published works on Paul, all four Gospels, and a major commentary on Romans.
