Glory in Romans

Donny Berry's 'Glory in Romans' traces how the motif of God's glory structures Paul's argument throughout Romans, from sin and judgment to redemption and future hope.

The study shows how key Pauline phrases — such as humanity falling short of God's glory and believers boasting in the hope of glory — interlock to present a theology from creation to new creation.

Berry demonstrates Paul's consistent concern for the revelation, loss, and restoration of divine glory across the letter.

Originally a doctoral dissertation, it combines careful exegesis with theological synthesis aimed at illuminating Pauline thought.

The work has influenced subsequent treatments of glory in biblical theology, including Berry's later ESBT volume.
