This course provides a rigorous academic analysis of the Epistle to the Romans, treating it as a primary historical document and a cornerstone of Western rhetorical and legal thought. Rather than a devotional study, the curriculum focuses on the letter’s role as a persuasive argument composed within the specific socio-political climate of the first-century Roman Empire. Students will examine the text’s complex internal logic, its sophisticated use of Greco-Roman rhetoric, and the historical tensions between the diverse ethnic and social groups to whom the letter was addressed.
