Overview

For decades, scholars such as E.P. Sanders, James D.G. Dunn, and N.T. Wright have presented a new way of viewing Paul in the light of his historical and theological context. This “New Perspective on Paul” (NPP) posits that the Judaism of Paul’s day and the accompanying debates concerning justification had less to do with individual salvation, and more to do with Jewish-Gentile issues.

NPP is not without its detractors—stalwart defenders of the traditional Protestant understanding John Piper and D.A. Carson among them. However, New Testament scholar Donald Garlington offers a mediating position that, he says, upholds the cherished doctrines of the Reformation—such as the imputed righteousness of Christ—while embracing many of the profound insights of NPP.

This selection of Garlington’s work on Paul includes his Exposition of Galatians. In this commentary, see Garlington’s approach in action as he interprets the letter in light of NPP. In Exegetical Essays, Garlington deals directly with specific issues concerning NPP—such as justification—and responds to the criticisms of John Piper. In Studies in the New Perspective on Paul, he takes on even more critics, directly responding to the work of D.A. Carson, Piper, and S.M. Baugh.

    I found these volumes to be extremely helpful.

    I'm actually surprised he says he 'upholds the cherished doctrines of the Reformation—such as the imputed righteousness of Christ'. I wouldn't have guessed that after reading his exchanges with Piper (“Imputation or Union with Christ? A Response to John Piper”). Otherwise he's great. Really well researched. He would claim to be Calvinist. Speaks in categories and language were used to. He's helped me a long the way. http://thescripturesays.org/new-perspective-on-paul/

    "upholds the cherished doctrines of ... the imputed righteousness of Christ—while embracing many of the profound insights of NPP." Kind of defeats the purpose doesn't it. It "embraces" while not recognizing the point, which is to get back to reading the text without anachronistic Greek theology debates, and read it like ... well, like Paul was talking to fellow Jews, and distinguishing salvation from Judaizers. Romans 2:1‑11, 16 is clear enough, and does not need "reinterpretation" ‑ according to another gospel.
