So a couple days ago J.R. Briggs offered some good tips on reading well. It spurred some good conversation.
Well, I’m currently working on my comp. questions for at Marquette, and I thought that some of you all would be interested in what I have to read for my tests. So today, is my bibliography on Contemporary Pauline Theology with special reference to the Philippians Hymn. I would highly recommend the short book by Stendahl to see where the “New Perspective on Paul” came from and where N.T. Wright got everything (well, kinda).
