Dr Savage explains Paul's paradoxical description of his ministry: 'When I am weak, then I am strong!' Drawing from archaeological data on first-century Corinth, this study establishes the secular underpinnings of Paul's language and his critique of society. He emerges as a radical foil to the spirit of the age.
