Many of the prevailing scholarly positions in Pauline studies have focused on the ethnicity of Jews and Gentiles as the dividing obstacle towards unity. Proposed solutions to this dichotomy seem to raise more questions than answers. Does the Holy Spirit transform new communities in Christ into a transcendent "third race" (as has been argued from some new perspective scholarship)? Does Paul regard the Spirit as providing a distinct genealogical basis for Gentiles to become recognized as children of Abraham (as argued by some Paul-within-Judaism-scholars)?

One Spirit examines the ways in which Paul understands how the Holy Spirit establishes unity among the various groups of believers he sought to bring together. Kris Song recasts Paul's unitive dimensions of the Spirit in terms that join Jewish and Gentile differences around the valence of cultic expression and temple worship. Ultimately, Paul regards the Spirit as establishing a new cultic space around the person of Christ such that Jewish and Gentile believers are permitted to retain important differences yet join together in common worship of the same Lord.
