Beschreibungen

Paul often says that God 'justifies' people in Christ, but what does that mean God does? The language appears legal, but many other interpretations have been suggested. Beginning from the use of this language in Judaism and early Christianity, James B. Prothro investigates biblical legal conflicts and the terminology of 'justification' in Paul's letters to determine what it means for Paul to say that God as judge is the 'justifier' of those who trust in Christ.<br /><br />Born 1986; 2008 BA, Concordia University Texas; 2012 MDiv, Concordia Seminary; 2013 MA in Classics, Washington University in St. Louis; 2017 PhD in New Testament, University of Cambridge; 2016-18 Pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Park Hills, Missouri; since 2015 sub-editor for Koine and Hellenistic Greek at The Religious Studies Review ; since 2018 Assistant Professor of Theology at Ave Maria University, Florida.
