"This admirable study demonstrates that carefully ground 'hermeneutical lenses' can focus and clarify one's perception of the implicit eco-theology and ethics in the Pauline letters." -- Victor Paul Furnish, University Distinguished Professor, Emeritus, of New Testament, Southern Methodist University "This well-written and carefully argued collaborative investigation is a must-read for environmental ethicists, biblical scholars, theologians, church practitioners, and their students." Chr(45) H Paul Santmire, author of Nature Reborn and Ritualizing Nature "Greening Paul is an important and welcome contribution to the development of theology in our ecological era. Broad in its research and clear in its methods, this book reads Pauline scriptures carefully and creatively, and offers a model of how to read scripture in conversation with theology and science. It will be a useful resource for scholars, students, and church study groups." -- Willis Jenkins, Margaret Farley Assistant Professor of Social Ethics, Yale University
