Very Good - But Conclusion Derails
Format: Paperback
Gaventa wrote an intriguing introduction to the book of Romans.
She begins by setting up what we can know about the setting, and likewise critiques some overreach in some other treatments.
The chapters which traces significant themes of sin/salvation; righteousness; worship; community; and the Jewish problem throughout the book. The threads she knits together move past the simplistic, and are convincing.
Where she loses me is in the conclusion. Her argument that "all" is necessarily universal as it stretches to salvation seems to ignore much of what Paul himself wrote in Romans.
Yes, sin is universal. Salvation is universally available. But universal availability doesn't suggest universal application.
