When Paul talks about the ‘flesh’ what does he really mean? Is this something he read from his scriptures(the Hebrew Bible)?

Welcome to the Forum

I recently saw a lecture video by Richard Rohr in which he stated that he felt it was unfortunate that Paul used the word “flesh”. Meaning that he thought it should mean something else.

I don’t know if I can find the video link for you. If I can, I’ll post it.
