Paul the Storyteller

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Christoph Heilig takes the narrative approaches of Richard B. Hays and N. T. Wright and shifts them onto a foundation in narrativity, correcting some missteps and grounding his own exegesis more solidly in linguistics and, thus, in the text. The readings that emerge from Paul’s letters, both narratives and implicit narratives, will provide much fuel for future discussion and debate. As did his earlier work with Bayes’ Theorem, Heilig’s narratological methodology paves a new and theoretically solid way forward for biblical scholarship.”
