Gospel as Letter

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Ulrich Mell inductively operates in the conviction that vigorous and patient engagement with the texts brings the reader into hearing distance of Paul's voice, which in the course of study may become transparent to the word of God. Though not directly concerned with preaching and teaching in the church, this commentary models what such preaching and teaching can be if grounded in historical and rhetorical study of the earliest extant Christian text, which continues to be an expression of the gospel in a rhetorical letter.”

New Testament Foundations for Christian Ethics

“…A noble effort to determine the essentially Christian from the mere description of what Christians have taught as ethics.”
