T. L. Carter draws on the work of social anthropologist Mary Douglas to conduct a cross-cultural analysis of the symbolism of the power of sin in the letters, examining thoroughly Douglas' 'Grid and Group' model and defending its use as a heuristic tool for New Testament scholars. He uses this model to examine the social location of Paul and the communities to which he wrote and offers a fresh insight into key passages from 1 Corinthians, Galatians and Romans. Carter concludes that an important part of Paul's purpose was to safeguard the position of law-free Gentile believers by redrawing social boundaries along eschatological rather than ethnic lines. 410 0$aMonograph series (Society for New Testament Studies) ;$v115. 606 $aSin$xBiblical teaching 606 $aGentiles in the New Testament 615 0$aSin$xBiblical teaching. 615 0$aGentiles in the New Testament. 676 $a241/.3/092 700 $aCarter$b T.
