Summary
The relational interpretation of »righteousness« lies at the root of the New Perspective claim that »the righteousness of God« in Paul is a cipher for God's saving faithfulness to his covenant. Charles Lee Irons critiques that interpretation and argues for the view that »the righteousness of God« in Paul is the status of righteousness that comes from God as a gift.
