Arguing that Paul's theology of grace is best approached in light of ancient I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again ebook pdf notions of "gift," Barclay describes Paul's relationship to Judaism in a fresh way. Barclay focuses on divine gift-giving, which for Paul, he says, is focused and fulfilled in the gift of Christ.
