Calvin Harris or J. Louis Martyn?
Sitting in my office today, I tried to prepare for some upcoming lectures on Galatians. Yet on listening to this track, all I wanted to do was get up and wriggle my butt around (sorry if that image makes you cough up your dinner/sugar puffs)
Have you read Brigitte Kahl's recent volume on Galatians (Galatians Re-Imagined)? It's fantastic. One of the best texts yet produced from a 'counter-imperial' perspective on Paul.
I read your comments on the book but I don't pick up that kind of nonsense since I read Kim's magisterial Christ and Caesar ... OK, I kid you. Not purchased it yet, but I fondly held it in a book shop recently... awaiting my moment to strike, all the more eager given your recommendation.

ReplyDeleteWell, given that you will be reading what I'm writing, you won't need to read anything else on the subject anyway.
