Apostle and the Empire, The : Paul's Implicit and Explicit Criticism of Rome

---

Outline: To what extent does Paul critique the Roman Empire in his letters? And how publicly critical could he have afforded to be? Having entered the conversation in 2015 with his book Hidden Criticism? Christoph Heilig contributes further insight and new research in The Apostle and the Empire, reevaluating the case for Paul hiding his criticism of Rome in the subtext of his letters. Heilig argues that scholars have previously overlooked passages that openly denounce the empire - for instance, the "triumphal procession" in 2 Corinthians, which Heilig discusses in detail by drawing on a variety of archaeological data. His groundbreaking work is a must-read for Pauline scholars and for anyone interested in how one of Christianity's most important teachers communicated his unease with the global superpower of his day.
