This book is a brand new paperback (with a remainder mark) and is my own copy.
Same rules as last week: Enter by leaving a comment telling me which essay you will read first. On Tuesday January 16 I will randomly select one comment and ship the book out to the lucky winner. If you leave more than one comment, I will only count one comment per person for the contest.
Good Luck!

• The Romans Debate, F. F. Bruce
The Roman Christians of Romans 16, Peter Lampe
Beer. Priority of Israel.
Love auto correct.
This is my new favorite comment ever.
Philip, I would like to read this books (The Romans Debate) because Romans is one of my most read and studied Letter and is still one of the most most widely debated. Pastor Gord Abraham 90 King St Port Colborne Ontario Canada L3K 4E9 cell 905-641-8608
The Romans Debate, by F.F. Bruce.
Romans as a Logos Protreptikos, David E. Aune
The Romans Debate by Bruce. I always liked his writings and assume he’ll give a great orientation.
The New Perspective on Paul: Paul and the Law, James D. G. Dunn
Reblogged this on Talmidimblogging.
I’ve just read an interesting chapter in Harink’s Paul Among the Postliberals that makes me want to read Beker’s The Faithfulness of God and the Priority of Israel in Paul’s Letter to the Romans first!
The Faithfulness of God and the Priority of Israel in Paul’s Letter to the Romans, J. C. Beker
The Faithfulness of God and the Priority of Israel in Paul’s Letter to the Romans by Beker likely followed by The Roman Christians of Romans 16 by Lampe.
The New Perspective on Paul: Paul and the Law, James D. G. Dunn
Also, I hope things are going well with you!
The New Perspective on Paul: Paul and the Law, James D. G. Dunn
I’d probably go for The Formal and Theological Coherence of Romans, James D. G. Dunn
Israel’s Misstep in the Eyes of Paul, Lloyd Gaston
Wow nice giveaway! I’m preaching on Romans right now so this looks neat! Like any other book I would start from the beginning so I would start with “St. Paul’s Letter to the Romans–and Others” by T. W. Manson. I am definitely eyeing “The Form and Function of the Greek Letter-Essay” by Martin Luther Stirewalt, Jr as something of interests!
The Roman Christians of Romans 16, Peter Lampe
Would love it, find that it would go gteat with my studies!
Israel’s Misstep in the Eyes of Paul, Lloyd Gaston
False Presuppositions in the Study of Romans, Prof. Donfried and the response.
“The New Perspective on Paul: Paul and the Law” by James D. G. Dunn what I would read first because of my current interest in understanding what this “new perspective” thing really is 🙂
I am very interested in the essay ‘The Faithfulness of God and the Priority of Israel in Paul’s Letter to the Romans’ by J. C. Beker. I would likely start with that one.
So many excellent looking essays to choose from. But I would start with “False Presuppositions in the Study of Romans” by Karl Paul Donfried.
I would start with the first chapter and read the book through to the end.
The Letter to Jerusalem by Jacob Jervell. Your book was listed as a source in my textbook for my class: Romans. It mentions that “Paul is preoccupied with this issue that he delivers in Romans the speech he hopes to make in Jerusalem.” This comment sparked my interest as I study Romans. Your book is not offered in my library at Liberty University. I found this book giveaway during a search on google for the essay. I know its aways from January, but if you would have mercy, I would love to read your book alongside this course of study. Thank you for your time. By His Grace, Summer
Sorry, this giveaway was over January 16 and I no longer have the book to give you. It is in the Liberty Library, although it is in the “robotic system” (which sounds scary to me).

Awesome! Yeah, I figured, but no loss in trying. It is in the LU library, just not at my fingertips, since its in the “Robotic system” there is no digital preference. You teach at LU?
