Amazon.com<\/a><\/p>\nDoug Campbell\u2019s book is an adventurous, bold, and thought-provoking attempt to re-think Pauline chronology with a pure reliance on the epistolary data. Campbell makes some eyebrow raising claims like the Antioch Incident (Gal 2.11-14) precedes the Jerusalem meeting (Gal 2.1-10)\u00a0\u2013\u00a0I\u2019ve read before\u00a0from Gerd Ludemann, but Campbell sets it up in his own way. He argues for the authenticity of \u00a0Colossians and Ephesians, dating them to ca. 50 AD and written from Pisidian Antioch. \u00a0He dates 1-2 Thessalonians in the early 40s. He doesn\u2019t think Paul wrote any letters from Rome.\u00a0Campbell believes that the pastoral epistles were written after and in response to Marcion. Many accounts of Pauline chronology just tinker with extant chronological narratives. In contrast, Campbell\u2019s work is a fresh and intriguing, even if not always convincing, attempt to start from scratch, forgo all the assumptions, and just work with the data we have. Worth consulting whenever debates about dating, authenticity, and provenance of Paul\u2019s letters are up for discussion.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
