Resumen del Editor
In this definitive biography, renowned Bible scholar, Anglican bishop, and best-selling author N. T. Wright offers a radical look at the apostle Paul, illuminating the humanity and remarkable achievements of this intellectual who invented Christian theology - transforming a faith and changing the world.
For centuries, Paul, the apostle who "saw the light on the Road to Damascus" and made a miraculous conversion from zealous Pharisee persecutor to devoted follower of Christ, has been one of the church's most widely cited saints. While his influence on Christianity has been profound, N. T. Wright argues that Bible scholars and pastors have focused so much attention on Paul's letters and theology that they have too often overlooked the essence of the man's life and the extreme unlikelihood of what he achieved.
To Wright, "The problem is that Paul is central to any understanding of earliest Christianity, yet Paul was a Jew; for many generations Christians of all kinds have struggled to put this together." Wright contends that our knowledge of Paul and appreciation for his legacy cannot be complete without an understanding of his Jewish heritage. Giving us a thoughtful, in-depth exploration of the human and intellectual drama that shaped Paul, Wright provides greater clarity of the apostle's writings, thoughts, and ideas and helps us see them in a fresh, innovative way.
Paul is a compelling modern biography that reveals the apostle's greater role in Christian history - as an inventor of new paradigms for how we understand Jesus and what he accomplished - and celebrates his stature as one of the most effective and influential intellectuals in human history.

Historia
“Jesus - the Jesus we might discover if we really looked,” explains Wright, “is larger, more disturbing, more urgent than we had ever imagined. We have successfully managed to hide behind other questions and to avoid the huge, world-shaking challenge of Jesus’s central claim and achievement. It is we, the churches, who have been the real reductionists. We have reduced the kingdom of God to private piety; the victory of the cross to comfort for the conscience; Easter itself to a happy, escapist ending after a sad, dark tale. Piety, conscience, and ultimate happiness are important...."

Historia
N. T. Wright—widely regarded as the most influential commentator and interpreter of Paul—deftly unpacks this dense and sometimes elusive letter, detailing Paul's arguments and showing how it illuminates the Gospel from the promises to Abraham through the visions of Revelation. Wright takes a deep dive into Romans 8, showing how it illuminates so much else that God reveals in Scripture: God the Father, Christology, and the Spirit; Jesus' Messiahship, cross, resurrection, and ascension; salvation, redemption, and adoption; suffering and glory; holiness and hope.

Historia
For years, Christians have been asking, "If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?" It turns out that many believers have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian's future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright asserts that Christianity's most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection, and provides a magisterial defense for a literal resurrection of Jesus. Wright then explores our expectation of "new heavens and a new earth".

In The Day the Revolution Began, N. T. Wright once again challenges commonly held Christian beliefs, as he did in Surprised by Hope. Demonstrating the rigorous intellect and breathtaking knowledge that have long defined his work, Wright argues that Jesus' death on the cross was not only to absolve us of our sins, it was actually the beginning of a revolution commissioning the Christian faithful to a new vocation - a royal priesthood responsible for restoring and reconciling all of God's creation.

Many people think the message of the Gospel is that if we believe in Jesus, we will be saved from hell and be transported to heaven after we die. But what if that is not what the Bible actually teaches? What if the good news Jesus came to announce is much bigger, much better, and includes much more than merely what happens after we die? Revered best-selling scholar N. T. Wright reveals what the gospel really is and how it can transform our todays just as much as our tomorrows.

With every earthquake and war, understanding the nature of evil and our response to it becomes more urgent. Evil is no longer the concern just of ministers and theologians but also of politicians and the media. We hear of child abuse, ethnic cleansing, AIDS, torture and terrorism, and rightfully we are shocked. N. T. Wright says that we should not be surprised. For too long we have naively believed in the modern idea of human progress.

Historia
The greatest revolution of all time was about to begin.... When Pontius Pilate ordered the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, he thought he was putting an end to the Jewish uprising that had been threatening the authority of the Roman Empire. What Pilate didn't realize, however, was that the real revolution was just getting started.

Historia
Paul is second only to Jesus as the most important person in the birth of Christianity, and yet he continues to be controversial, even among Christians. How could the letters of Paul be used both to inspire radical grace and to endorse systems of oppression - condoning slavery, subordinating women, condemning homosexual behavior? Borg and Crossan use the best of biblical and historical scholarship to explain the reasons for Paul's mixed reputation and reveal to us what scholars have known for decades: The later letters of Paul were created by the early church to dilute Paul's message.

Trained as an evangelical Bible scholar, Peter Enns loved the Scriptures and shared his devotion by teaching at Westminster Theological Seminary. But the further he studied the Bible, the more he found himself confronted by questions that could neither be answered within the rigid framework of his religious instruction nor be accepted among the conservative evangelical community.

Historia
Historians know virtually nothing about the two decades following the crucifixion of Jesus, when his followers regrouped and began to spread his message. During this time the man we know as the apostle Paul joined the movement and began to preach to the gentiles. Using the oldest Christian documents that we have - the letters of Paul - as well as other early Christian sources, historian and scholar James Tabor reconstructs the origins of Christianity.

Marcellino D'Ambrosio dusts off what might have been just dry theology to bring you the exciting stories of great heroes such as Ambrose, Augustine, Basil, Athanasius, John Chrysostom, and Jerome. These brilliant, embattled, and sometimes eccentric men defined the biblical canon, hammered out the Creed, and gave us our understanding of sacraments and salvation. It is they who preserved the rich legacy of the early Church for us.

Historia
Best-selling author John Ortberg shares how Jesus' influence has swept over history and how his vision of life continues to impact humanity today. Jesus' impact on our world is highly unlikely, widely inescapable, largely unknown, and decidedly double-edged. It is unlikely in light of the severe limitations of his earthly life; it is inescapable because of the range of impact; it is unknown because history doesn't connect dots; and it is doubled-edged because his followers have wreaked so much havoc, often in his name.

Wright takes a deep dive into Romans 8, showing how it illuminates so much else that God reveals in Scripture: God the Father, Christology, and the Spirit; Jesus' Messiahship, cross, resurrection, and ascension; salvation, redemption, and adoption; suffering and glory; holiness and hope.

N. T. Wright argues that every world view must explain seven “signposts”, indicators inherent to humanity. Using the Gospel of John as his source, Wright shows how Christianity defines each signpost and illuminates why we so often see them as being "broken" and unattainable. Drawing on the wisdom of the Gospels, Wright explains why these signposts are fractured and damaged and how Christianity provides the vision, guidance, and hope for making them whole once again, ultimately healing ourselves and our world.

For years, Christians have been asking, "If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?" It turns out that many believers have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian's future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright asserts that Christianity's most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection, and provides a magisterial defense for a literal resurrection of Jesus. Wright then explores our expectation of "new heavens and a new earth".

The apostle Paul penned a number of very concise, focused passages in his letters to the early church that summarize the gospel message in just a few well-chosen words. Each of these key texts has a unique emphasis highlighting some essential aspect of the Good News of Jesus Christ. The chapters in this revelatory new book closely examine those vital gospel texts, one verse at a time.

Paul Reconstructed
This book has been called an accessible version of N. T. Wright’s earlier academic work, Paul and the Faithfulness of God. I haven’t read the latter but don’t be fooled - this isn’t just a layperson’s devotional. It is a unique biography of St. Paul from a man who is more at-home with his theology than virtually any other scholar in Christian history. (Well, non-contemporaneous of course). He has, for better or worse, influenced how we consider our master theologian of the New Covenant.
Much of his earlier work is abridged and reflected here. Though it is ostensibly a biography, Wright fills in the chronology with an overview of Paul’s ideas and focuses in on most of the Epistles within their chronological framework. Though we have few personal details about Paul’s life (most of them gleaned from Acts), there is a genuine estimation of probable life events (Jewish meditative discernment, life in Tarsus in the context of the Second Temple) and some conjecture about the holes in the narrative. Ex. Was Colossians written from a jail in Ephesus or Rome? You will find a convincing effort here to pick up the missing pieces where it is possible.
Like the best of biographies, I came away from this book feeling that I understand and respect St. Paul in a new light, if not a fully “new perspective”.

Pleasant rendition of an insightful book
The book is a wonderful introduction to the life and theology of Paul the apostle written by Tom Wright and pleasantly read by James Langton. It is a great resource for understanding the first century contexts (Jewish, Greco-Roman, etc.) of Paul's ministry and letters. If you want to take your understanding of Paul and by extension the whole New Testament beyond a Sunday school level this book is a great place to start. Its tone is warm and conversational and Wright does an excellent job making the latest scholarship not only accessible but vivid and engaging.

Essential reading about an essential zealot.
I learned more about early Christianity and about the essence of zealotry listening to this book than any other I have experienced. Well worth your time if your interests are here.

Splendid
As a student of Scripture and St. Paul in particular I am greatful for N.T. Wright's work on St. Paul the Apostle. This book a makes the Authors previous work on the subject even more accessible to the lay reader.

Very Informative
I know a lot more about Paul as a person and the world in which he lived after reading this book.
It is well written and performed. Good book.
Thanks.

Excellence in Scholarship and Expression!
Very inspirational as well as intellectually stimulating. As in other biographies of well-known giants of history, this study of the Apostle's life provides new glimpses of understanding, not only of the events of his life and relationships, but also the underpinning of his theology, his philosophy of life, and his personal relationships. Outstanding! Highly recommended for anyone wishing to stretch their biblical knowledge coupled with the human element of Paul's mission and his day-to-day life.

Excellent a biography but too tied to Anglicanism
The title describes this as a biography, and that is its structure, though it is necessarily more than just an account of Paul's life. In fact it’s an excellent biography of a man who changed the world. In saying this, I nor the author are trying to say that it was God’s work in people’s hearts that changed the world, but at the same time, this is a story of the man who probably was most influential in the establishment of the church in the west and the propagation of Jesus’ teaching to those outside the Jewish tradition. It gives a lot of insight into what made Paul the person he became. There are some discussions that are quite good, especially his analysis of the idea of “zeal” for God that drove so many of Jesus’ and Paul’s contemporaries. Zeal was the commitment to the one God, the God of Abraham and his descendents, as well as to the Law and the Prophets. Zeal was an absolute commitment and was what drove Paul to persecute Christians in his earlier years. When Paul was struck on the road to Damascus, his complete perspective changed. As he realized that Jesus was the Messiah spoken about in the Prophets, he had to rethink all the presuppositions that he had previously held, but this did not change his commitment to the one God that he had always worshipped. As Wright describes it, Paul would have never thought of himself as promoting a new religion. He was a Jew and was since the Messiah had come, he looked back at what the Messiah was to do, to bring the whole world under the one God and see this as a fulfillment of the promise to Abraham that all the world would be blessed by him. As a biography, this is very good at telling all that we know about Paul’s life and thinking. He relies on Acts, Paul’s epistles, as well as other contemporary evidence. It also gives some insight into Paul’s theological perspective, but unfortunately, in this area Wright is sometimes unclear and at other times (seemingly) tied to an Anglican perspective. His treatment of justification and faith, two areas that are the most important parts of Paul’s legacy, has some good insights, but ultimately fall short. The book is aimed at the layman, and there is much to be gained from reading it. But, it also requires some care and a willingness to take some things with a grain of salt and a questioning eye.

The Dicipal Paul
Very eye opening story, quite a bit different than what we know from the Bible

An engaging and informing biography of Paul
This is one of the best pictures of the apostle Paul that I've ever had painted for me and by one of the most educated theologians on the historicity of scriptures and Paul's letters and all the contexts and cultural understanding that is necessary to truly grasp hold of these scriptures with any sort of honest intellectual understanding.

Loved It!
Wright undertook an ambitious challenge in creating a biography of the Apostle Paul. But drawing on the New Testament itself and lots of history, he has created a moving and inspiring story.
