Throughout his letters, the apostle Paul consistently references signs, wonders, visions,
miracles, divine healings, prophecies, and speaking in tongues. This book examines
Paul's repertoire of divinatory and wonderworking practices and contextualizes them
in their historical milieu. Furthermore, the book situates such practices within a
framework of reciprocity that dominated human-divine relationships in antiquity. Insofar
as Paul extends miraculous abilities to his gentile followers, these wondrous abilities
come in proportion to their faithfulness
