For scholars and students of early Christian theology

Clarifies Paul's views on Torah and Jesus Christ

You will gain insights into Pauline thought and history

This book explores the Antioch Incident and its impact on early Christian theology.
The so-called 'Antioch Incident' - the confrontation between the apostles Peter and Paul in Galatians 2.11-21 - continues to be a source of controversy in both scholarly and popular estimations of the emergence of the early church and the development of Pauline theology. Paul and the Crucified Christ in Antioch offers an innovative interpretation of Paul's account of and response to this event, creatively combining historical reconstruction, detailed exegesis, and theological reflection. S. A. Cummins argues that the nature and significance of the central issue at stake in Antioch - whether the Torah or Jesus Christ determines who are the people of God - gains great clarity and force when viewed in relation to a Maccabean martyr model of Judaism as now christologically reconfigured and redeployed in the life and ministry of the apostle Paul.
