Mercy for All
Paul, Judaism, and the Salvation of “All Israel”
Study Focus
This is a study in the interpretation of Paul with a focus on an interpretation of Romans 9 to 11 as a defense of God's faithfulness to Israel.
Historical Approaches
The study begins with reviews of three historical approaches to studying Paul's relationship to the Judaism of his era, the third anchoring Paul with the Judaism of his time (Second Temple Judaism).
Interpretation Framework
It then moves to an interpretation of his writings from a broad framework within that Jewish sociocultural paradigm.
Key Arguments
The study suggests that Paul's letter to the Romans provides a defense of Judaism, and Romans 9 to 11 provides an argument for God's faithfulness to Israel.
Romans 11 and Israel's Redemption
Romans 11, particularly 11:25-32, presents a picture of Israel's redemption and how Gentiles relate to Israel's redemption, through the mercy they have received via Israel. Gentiles are seen as instrumental in the redemption of Israel.
Missional Paradigm
Romans 11:25-32 should be read as a missional paradigm to Israel.
