Union with Christ is a debated theological theme in Pauline studies, yet surprisingly a comprehensive exegetical analysis of the theme within the Pauline canon has not been produced. Until now. This book offers the first thorough exegetical and theological investigation of union with Christ in Paul's letters, carefully examining every occurrence of the phrases "in Christ," "with Christ," "through Christ," "into Christ," and other related expressions. Relying on his contextual and linguistic analysis, both builds a holistic portrayal of Paul's thinking and engages current theological perceptions of union with Christ.
