He argues that traditional interpretations often misread Paul's critiques of Judaism, suggesting instead that eschatology is central to understanding Paul's theology. Novenson also addresses the meaning of 'Judaism' in Paul's letters, the nature of his opponents, and the problematic use of the term 'legalism' in Pauline scholarship. In this conversation, Matthew Novenson explores the complexities of Paul's theology, particularly his views on legalism, the relationship between Jews and Gentiles, and the implications of the Christ event for both groups. He argues that Paul's letters are not merely anti-legalistic but are deeply rooted in the announcement of Christ's resurrection. Novenson also discusses how Paul's understanding of the law evolves in light of the resurrection and how it affects his ethical teachings, emphasizing the enduring importance of love as a commandment that transcends mortality.Matthew Novenson is the Helen H.
