Bloomsbury Eschatology and the Covenant: A Comparison of 4 Ezra and Romans 1-11 (The Library of New Testament Studies)

Product Description This extensive and detailed analysis compares Paul with the author of 4 Ezra against the background of Sanders's portrayal of early Judaism. 4 Ezra and Paul would seem to have one significant point in common: their common displacement from the covenantal 'pattern of religion' which was so prevalent in Early Judaism. It is from this perspective that Longenecker undertakes his comparison. About the Author Bruce Longenecker is Lecturer in New Testament Studies at St Andrews University, Scotland.'
