Outlaw Justice: The Messianic Politics of Paul

This close reading of Romans presents Paul as a radical political thinker, exploring the relationship between his perspective and that of secular political theorists. Jennings examines both ancient philosophers and contemporary post-Marxists to demonstrate how Romans offers a sustained argument for just socialities.

Reading Romans as an essay on messianic politics in conversation with ancient and postmodern theory challenges traditional views of Paul, revealing him as a key figure for those seeking a society based on respect rather than domination. In the context of unjust global empires, Jennings finds in Paul a vision for creating just societies outside the law.
