What happens when we read the Bible with a bad Biblical narrative?

If we force a narrative on the Bible that isn't prevalent in the Bible we will always skew the meaning of the text. Scot suggests that the framework of theocracy, monarchy, and christocracy is the Biblical narrative that most faithfully leads to Jesus.

How did Paul interact with Judaism? Does our definition of Gospel fit within how Paul understood the Gospel?

Scot dissects these answers these questions and more from the last section of E.P. Sander's book. Most of Sander's book breaks down the false assumptions of Judaism that tainting understand Paul in his context. This section takes all the insightful information about 1st Century Judaism and draws helpful insights to gaining a greater understanding about Paul's letters.

The last body of Jewish literature that E.P. Sanders investigates in Paul and Palestinian Judaism is the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha. Scot explores Sanders's synthesis of this literature to shed light on questions like how do works come from faith and how do rewards and punishments work within covenant nomism?

Is Judaism a "works righteousness" religion?

This is the driving question for E.P. Sanders's study of Judaism in the first century. Sanders continues his investigation of covenant nomism and finds the Essence community of Qumran clearly reflects that they understood being God's people by election and not because of the works that they did.
