Introduction / Part 1: The Christ party in the Corinthian community -- Part 2: The Apostle Peter in Rome. Ernst Käsemann --

"For the first time Ferdinand Christian Baur's ground-breaking essay 'Die Christuspartei in der korinthischen Gemeinde, der Gegensatz des paulinischen und petrinischen Christenthums in der ältesten Kirche, der Apostel Petrus in Rom' (1831) appears in English translation. Here Baur argued for a diversity of views in the earliest strata of the Christian tradition that shaped the modern study of Paul in lasting ways. Baur's work revealed a tension beteen Pauline, gentile Christianity, on the one hand, and Petrine, Judaizing Christianity. In addition to Baur's essay, this edition includes the first English translation of Ernst Käsemann's introduction to Baur's Historisch-kritische Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament. Even if some of Baur's concrete historical results have been surpassed by subsequent scholarship, this book offers a compelling glimpse of the critical method and piercing insight into one of the shapers of modern biblical study"--Page 4 of cover.
