Exploring gentile inclusion in Paul within Judaism.
How Paul’s Jewish Identity Shapes Gentiles’ Inclusion
This dissertation explores how Paul’s enduring Jewish identity shapes his vision for gentiles as included alongside a faithful Jewish remnant. It examines the Paul within Judaism school’s perspective, using Romans 11’s olive tree metaphor to illustrate gentiles’ transformative yet distinct role within Israel’s family. The study evaluates the term inclusion, highlighting both its explanatory power and its limitations, offering fresh insight into Paul’s theology and Jewish-Christian relations.
About Me
Hi, I’m Hannah. I hold a BA in Illustration and a BA in Theological Studies from the London School of Theology, where I discovered a lifelong passion for exploring the depths of the Judeo-Christian faith.
My journey is shaped not only by study but also by the daily adventure of being a mum to five wonderful children. When I’m not with family, you’ll find me reading, writing, or sketching—always looking for fresh ways to weave together creativity and theology, and share reflections on faith with others.
