I am not a Paul specialist so suspect others will have much more well-informed opinions, but I found it helpful for getting a sense of the ongoing debate. He engages Wright, Barclay, and newer voices like @LauraRbnsn

The strength for me was the exegetical part on 2 Cor 2:14 where Heilig masterfully puts material and wider literary sources into conversation with the text.

Este libro deja algunos aprendizajes clave para el estudio de la Biblia como disciplina académica. Abro 🧵🪡

2. Los enfoques críticos son resultado de la Ilustración y su énfasis en la razón. Estos acercamientos incluyen:
1️⃣ La crítica histórica que busca entender el contexto y las circunstancias detrás del texto.
2️⃣ La crítica de fuentes analiza el material que el autor utilizó
