Patrick reflects with Northern Seminary Professor Nijay Gupta on one of the most influential papers ever written in New Testament studies - The New Perspective on Paul by James DG (or Jimmy) Dunn. They discuss the man behind the paper that sent shockwaves through the world of New Testament Scholarship all those years ago and examine the content of the piece, discussing covenantal nomism and legalism among other topics and considering some of the criticisms that have been levelled against Jimmy down through the years.
