Few debates in modern biblical scholarship have generated as much controversy as the New Perspective on Paul. Does this reinterpretation help us recover Paul’s Jewish context, or does it blur the gospel message of justification by faith alone? In this episode of Five-Minute Debate, Dr. Rachel Carter—a New Testament theologian—argues that the New Perspective is historically faithful, while Dr. John Mitchell—a Reformation studies scholar—defends the traditional Protestant interpretation. We’ll also draw on the scholarship of N.T. Wright, E.P. Sanders, and Michael Heiser to frame this discussion in both ancient context and modern theology.
