'This is a rich, well-researched, and clearly written study. It also is persuasive throughout, and it makes balanced judgments based on the textual evidence of the epistle. This is likely to become a key treatment of Pauline themes and forms of argumentation in 1 Corinthians.' Paul Foster, The Expository Times 'Paul and the Rhetoric of Reversal in 1 Corinthians contributes significant data to the question of the coherence and arrangement of the epistle. It rightly accentuates how Paul's message of the crucified and risen Messiah provides a key theme for considering the arrangement of the entirety of the letter. It also rightly encourages a theological and pastoral consideration of the letter. It will be of great interest to those working in Pauline theology, Corinthian studies, and rhetorical studies.' H. H. Drake Williams, III, Themelios '... I applaud Malcolm's approach of looking at the rhetorical structure more broadly (while also affirming the value of formal rhetorical analysis at the microlevel) ... I recommend this book as a balanced and well-researched read for someone trying to understand the argumentative flow of 1 Corinthians.' Trent A. Rogers, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
