A new volume on Jesus and Paul

I am uniquely positioned to write this volume, Jesus and Paul: Shared Visions, Divergent Paths, having researched, taught, and published extensively on both the historical Jesus and the Apostle Paul for over two decades. My previous monographs range from introductory textbooks on both figures to advanced monographs on their political and theological ethics. The following selected publications demonstrate the sustained scholarly foundation that directly supports the methodology and arguments of this book:
