Abstract

Critically asessing Charles Talbert's contention that Paul successively utilized models of the covenant derived from Abraham, Moses and Jeremiah, Getty examines Paul's break from and continuity with Judaism. She considers in turn E. P. Sanders' analysis of the relationship between Paul's thinking on the law with that of his Jewish contempories, J. D. G. Dunn's demonstration of Paul's affinity with other Jewish Christians on the opposition between justification by works or by faith, and J. Paul Sampley's caveat regarding too quickly "synthesizing" Pauline thought before more nuances in Paul are better understood. In the light of these, the author then re-views Romans 9-11 and integrates where appropriate the insights of each of the studies.
