In this new commentary on "Ephesians", Gerhard Sellin challenges former conceptions about the authorship of this so called Pauline letter. The letter to the Ephesians was not written by Paul himself but by one of his students. The commentary shows how the unknown author developed Paul's theological heritage in terms of the theology that was influenced by a philosophy predominant in Jewish and Christian circles towards the end of the first century. It also features German text.
