Romans Matrix

[mikew]

Per Deans request, lets see about getting a matrix of positions held by various teachers on different aspects of Romans. Here is a list of some aspects that may be significant and helpful

Audience -- Gentiles, Jews or split between both
Style -- Ambassador, Theological, Pastoral Epistle
Purpose -- Reaching Spain, Correcting believers, Last Will
Sermon Rom 1:18-32 -- About Jews, About Gentiles, All people, As if about Jews
Who is a Jew? Rom 2:28-29 -- About Jews, Only believing Jews, All believers
Who is Israel? Rom 9:6 -- Believing Jews, All believers

You can provide any additional entries you would recommend -- these probably should be ideas that can be expressed with a few words -- not a long explanation.

If you have information for any teachers/commentators, provide that if you like.
