A student of Oscar Cullmann and Karl Barth, Lloyd Gaston provided one of the most thought provoking studies on Paul, which initially went rather unnoticed, but later influenced authors such as John Gager. His works reflect a concern for the Jewish-Christian dialogue and embrace the contributions of such systematic theologians as Paul van Buren who dedicated much of his efforts to reformulate a theology of Christianity compatible with an appreciation for the ongoing, living vitality of Judaism. He spent much of his teaching career as professor of New Testament at the Vancouver School of Theology.--Isaac W. Oliver
