Paul Among the People
The Apostle Reinterpreted and Reimagined in His Own Time
Book • 2010
In 'Paul Among the People', Sarah Ruden explores the Apostle Paul's writings by setting them against the backdrop of the Greco-Roman world.
She challenges contemporary criticisms of Paul by examining his teachings on topics like pleasure, homosexuality, women, authority, and slavery through the lens of ancient culture.
Ruden argues that Paul's message was one of love and equality, often misunderstood by modern readers due to cultural and historical differences.
