While Wright regards himself as “deeply orthodox theologian”, or an evangelical with an unswerving commitment to the Christian orthodoxy, some of his contemporaries see his influence in Pauline studies as “traversing denominational divides and attracting Roman Catholics, Anglicans, Methodists, Presbyterians, and Evangelicals alike”.

N. T. Wright’s book, Paul: In Fresh Perspective, is organized in two parts –Themes and Structures – each consisted of four chapters. Thus, part one – Themes – comprises the following chapters: Paul’s World, Paul’s Legacy, Creation and Covenant, Messiah and Apocalyptic, and Gospel and Empire, while in part two – Structures – are subsumed Rethinking God, Reworking God’s People, Reimagining God’s Future and the final chapter Jesus, Paul and the Task of the Church. The book is undoubtedly demonstrative of Wright’s approach to the Pauline studies. In the preface, Wright outlines the argument of his book, hence his method of approaching the Apostle Paul, describing the reading of Paul as “a bit like climbing a mountain”. Thus, according to the author, “there are many routes… and those who are used only to the easy tourist path sometimes forget that the scaling of the vertical crags is not only more exciting but might sometimes get you to the top more quickly”. So, what Wright attempts, according to his own words, is to “map various paths, each of which… leads to the summit”. As stated by Wright, the first chapter, Paul’s World, Paul’s Legacy, is intended to serve as a general introduction, which not only sets the scene for the following ones, but also, and perhaps more importantly, introduces his method of understanding Paul’s thought, namely the narrative study of Pauline texts.

The mountain metaphor is further used by Wright in order to substantiate his claim that Paul “lived in (at least) three worlds”, as well as to delineate these worlds. thus, the first world, “the one by which he ascended the mountain” is considered to be Judaism – the Second-Temple Judaism to be precise.
