Apocalyptic Paul Booth, Pt. 3 / Susan Grove Eastman / Pauline Apocalyptic, the Cosmos, and Human Personhood

The Apocalyptic Paul Booth is a series of episodes dedicated to apocalyptic readings of the apostle Paul’s letters. Interviews situate Pauline apocalyptic—a stream of similar interpretations of Paul's writings originating in the work of exegetes like Rudolf Bultmann and Ernst Käsemann—among other interpretations (the Old and New Paul readings, for instance) as well as among Second Temple Jewish apocalyptic literature. On this episode, I talk with Dr. Susan Grove Eastman, Associate Research Professor Emeritus of New Testament at Duke Divinity School, as well as an Episcopal priest with two decades of pastoral experience. Dr. Eastman is the author of numerous books on Paul, most recently including Recovering Paul's Mother Tongue: Language and Theology in Galatians (2nd ed., Cascade, 2022), (forthcoming, Cascade, 2023), and the forthcoming Interpretation commentary on Romans.
