From the so-called \"radical new perspective,\" the author argues that Paul did not abandon Judaism nor did he intend to supersede it, but rather sought to integrate Gentiles into Israel as adopted children of Abraham. An accessible work that invites us to rethink the origins of Christianity and the figure of the apostle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book examines the mission of Paul of Tarsus based on the theological and historical tensions that surrounded his preaching. In contrast to the traditional interpretation that presents him as the founder of Christianity, the author argues that Paul remained within Judaism and worked for non-Jews to be incorporated into the people of Israel, cooperating in the preparation of the kingdom of God. The work analyzes how Paul did not deify Jesus nor interpret his death as a vicarious sacrifice, and reveals that his main opponents were not Jews, but certain proselytes or Gentiles converted to Judaism. A read that questions the foundations of traditional Christian dogma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe religious identity of Paul of Tarsus between Judaism and nascent Christianity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInterpretation of the figure of Jesus and his death from a non-divine and non-sacrificial perspective.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIntegration of Gentiles into Israel as adopted children of Abraham.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical conflict between Paul and proselytes or Gentiles converted to Judaism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritical review of the \"radical new perspective\" in Pauline studies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in the history of early Christianity, biblical theology, and studies on first-century Judaism.
