Past study of Rom 1:16-3:26 focuses on individual salvation or on social relations and also produces a host of interpretative quandaries. Marcus A. Mininger develops a new approach, which includes but goes beyond these foci, by unearthing the theme of revelation that runs throughout Paul’s argument largely unnoticed. Read this way, the rationale of Paul’s argument becomes quite clear, including for “problem texts” like Rom 2 and 3:1-8, as Paul proves that the gospel, not the law, overcomes sin’s power and that God’s righteousness always exists in contrast to the human condition in this age.
Marcus A. Mininger Born 1976; 2002 MDiv; 2009 ThM; 2017 PhD; 2012-16 Assistant Professor of New Testament, Mid-America Reformed Seminary; since 2016 Associate Professor of New Testament, Mid-America Reformed Seminary.
- By (author) Marcus A Mininger
"[This is] an unusually interesting and original piece of work. [Its] interaction with current literature is impressively thorough and fair; the argumentation, which never loses sight of the text itself, is cogent and comprehensive. [...] All in all, frankly, this is one of the most satisfying dissertations (published or unpublished) that I recall ever reading. I hope it gets the attention it deserves." Moises Silva, former Mary French Rockefeller Distinguished Professor of New Testament at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
