| rdfs:comment | - The "New Perspective on Paul" is a significant shift in the way many scholars, especially Protestant scholars, interpret the writings of the Apostle Paul. Since the Reformation, orthodox studies of Paul's writings have been heavily influenced by Lutheran and Reformed views (the "old perspective") that are said to ascribe negative attributes associated with sixteenth century Roman Catholicism to first century Judaism. The "new perspective" is an attempt to lift Paul's letters out of this framework and interpret them based on what is said to be an understanding of first century Judaism, taken on its own terms. (Within this article, "the old perspective" refers specifically to Reformed and Lutheran traditions, especially the views descended from John Calvin and Martin Luther.)
