In the Form of a God

More about the book

Exploring the pre-existence of Christ Jesus, this book delves into Paul's Christology through the lens of the gentile mission. Andrew Perriman challenges prevailing scholarly views by examining how pagans and post-pagan believers would have interpreted the backstory of Jesus, known to them as the exalted Lord. This unique perspective illuminates the complexities of Paul's writings, particularly the opening of his letter to the Philippians, while providing fresh insights into the significance of Jesus for both the Pauline mission and the ancient pagan context.
