“Professor Taylor has provided a clearly written and highly informative account of Paul's life, his world, and his letters. The presentation is well organized, comprehensive, and insightful, making the apostle and his work accessible to the reader. The book can be recommended highly for students and others who want a reliable guide to one of the most important figures and collections of New Testament writings at the dawn of Christian origins." —Arland J. Hultgren Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota "This extremely well-written study combines an effective exposition of Paul's identity with an effective exposition of Paul's seven undisputed letters. Professor Taylor is remarkably sensitive to the Roman imperial context of Paul's ministry and the impact of Paul's Roman chains upon his letters to the Philippians and to Philemon.”
