The Real Paul Quotes

“Paul draws the conclusion as to what this new reality of being in the Anointed looks like and it is in radical contradistinction to the Roman Empire: “You are no longer Jew or Greek, no longer slave or freeborn, no longer ‘male and female’” (Gal 3:28a). The Roman Empire is emphatically hierarchical from the emperor on down. Everyone has their place. In the counter-world/kingdom in the Anointed, there is no hierarchy; all are one.”
― Bernard Brandon Scott, The Real Paul: Recovering His Radical Challenge
