Summary:

Hermann Detering, born 1953-2018, was a Berlin pastor who authored the book "Der gefälschte Paulus" in 1995, translated to english in 2003 as "The Falsified Paul" (sometimes translated falsely as "The Fabricated Paul", a false title because this title implies that the Homilies fabricated the paul within it, when Detering and many other scholars argue the Clementine Homilies is a historical account of paul's hidden history).

Detering wrote for "The Journal of Higher Criticism", indicating his skepticism of paul's authorship of the pauline epistles. He wrote "The Dutch Radical Approach to Pauline Writings" in 2000. Hermann is one of many researchers who identified paul with Simon Magus, the Samaritan magician in the Clementine Homilies. Detering's argument expands beyond the Clementines to include other apocrypha, arguing that Simon Magus is sometimes described in apocryphal legends in terms that would fit paul, though most significantly in the "Clementine Recognitions and Homilies".
