Paul the Jewish Theologian reveals Saul of Tarsus as a man who, though rejected in the synagogue, never truly left Judaism. Young disagrees with long held notions that Hellenism was the context which most influenced Paul's communication of the Gospel. Only in rightly aligning Paul as rooted in his Jewishness and training as a Pharisee can he be correctly interpreted. Young asserts that Paul's view of the Torah was always positive, and separates Jesus' mission among the Jews from Paul's call to the Gentiles.
