This is an extraordinarily rich collection of essays.\" -- Susan Grove Eastman, Associate Research Professor of New Testament, Duke Divinity School\u003cbr\u003e\"For good reason, Romans 911 is now widely recognized as a crux in the argument of Pauls Letter to the Romans, and indeed in the apostles theology as a whole.
