Paul and the Corinthians

Paul and the Corinthians

Jonathan B. Ensor

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
Jonathan B. Ensor revisits the scholarly consensus concerning Paul’s intermediate visit to the Corinthians between his first and second epistles. Ensor re-evaluates the textual evidence, interpreting the event through a socio-historical lens that focuses upon ancient trial by ordeal and exit in the context of communal conflict, shedding significant light upon the social behaviours involved in this event and its interpretation.Beginning with a review of relational and social-spacial dynamics and sources of conflict, Ensor then explores the politics of displacement in Graeco-Roman antiquity to analyse the relational contours of Paul’s intermediate visit to Corinth. From these insights, Ensor interprets Paul’s autobiographical narrations of apostolic ordeal and Paul’s announcement of imminent return to Corinth in 2 Corinthians. Ensor concludes that Paul, through the ordeal accounts, aimed both to reverse the judgments against him emerging from the intermediate visit, and to undermine the evaluative structure of his detractors who viewed him as impotent, illegitimate, and displaced.

Paul, The Apostle of Obedience

Paul, The Apostle of Obedience

Jason A. Myers

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
Jason A. Myers reconsiders the meaning and context of the phrase “the obedience of faith” in Rom 1:5 and how it contributes to the theme of obedience in Romans. In contrast to previous studies that have nearly exclusively focused on the obedience language in light of the Hebrew Bible and Second Temple literature, Myers instead investigates how this language functioned within the Greco-Roman world, particularly in the discourse of the Roman Empire.By studying both the Greco-Roman contexts and the use of obedience language during the Empire, Myers sheds fresh light on the meaning of “the obedience of faith,” and concludes that such examination helps contemporary readers understand how Gentiles in Paul’s audience would have heard and received the terms and images relating to obedience. In addition, he argues that Paul’s use of obedience language, both at the beginning and end of Romans (1:5; 15:18), serves as rhetorical bookends, and signals a theme that is central to Paul’s purpose in Romans and integral to his calling as an apostle to the Gentiles.

Paul’s Use of the Old Testament in Romans 9:19-24

Paul’s Use of the Old Testament in Romans 9:19-24

Brian J. Abasciano

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2024
nidottu
Brian Abasciano continues his project examining the use of the Old Testament in Romans 9, building upon his previous two volumes and their intertextual methodology. This method incorporates into a thorough traditional exegesis a comprehensive analysis of Paul's use of Scripture against the background of interpretive traditions surrounding the texts alluded to, with great emphasis placed on analyzing the original contexts of Paul's citations and allusions. Such an intertextual exegesis is conducted in Romans 9:19-24 with an awareness of the broader unit of chapters 9-11 especially, and also the epistle as a whole. Conclusions for the meaning of these passages and their theological significance are drawn.

Paul and Asklepios

Paul and Asklepios

Christopher D. Stanley

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2024
nidottu
What role did offers of physical healing (or the hope of receiving it) play in the missionary program of the apostle Paul? What did he do to treat the many illnesses and injuries that he endured while pursuing his mission? What did he advise his followers to do regarding their health problems? Such questions have been broadly neglected in studies of Paul and his churches, but Christopher D. Stanley shows how vital they truly become once we recognize how thoroughly “pagan” religion was implicated in all aspects of Greco-Roman health care. What did Paul approve, and what did he reject?Given Paul’s silence on these subjects, Stanley relies on a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary approach to develop informed judgments about what Paul might have thought, said, and done with regard to his own and his followers’ health care. He begins by exploring the nature and extent of sickness in the Roman world and the four overlapping health care systems that were available to Paul and his followers: home remedies, “magical” treatments, religious healing, and medical care. He then examines how Judeans and Christians in the centuries before and after Paul viewed and engaged with these systems. Finally, he speculates on what kinds of treatments Paul might have approved or rejected and whether he might have used promises of healing to attract people to his movement. The result is a thorough and nuanced analysis of a vital dimension of Greco-Roman social life and Paul’s place within it.

Paul, the Temple, and Building a Metaphor

Paul, the Temple, and Building a Metaphor

David Anthony Basham

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2024
sidottu
David Anthony Basham argues that Paul and the Corinthians share a “system of associated commonplaces” about the Jerusalem temple. Basham proposes that when Paul applies temple language to the Corinthians by calling them naos theou (“God’s temple”), he sparks a creative process of interaction between the temple and the Corinthian assembly — a process of selecting, emphasizing, and organizing information from the source domain (temple) to see the target domain (the Corinthians) in a new light.Basham suggests that, in understanding Paul’s fraught relationship with certain institutions of Second Temple Judaism and his conception of gentile inclusion, we can appreciate the creative ways in which he employs cultic imagery to describe his ministry and the ritual life of early gentile believers. By exploring the construction of metaphor, the depiction of the Jerusalem temple in Paul’s letters, and Judaean religion among gentiles, Basham demonstrates that Paul’s temple metaphor speaks to a new cultic reality for gentiles-in-Christ that is linked to Israel’s worship, though detached from its actual expression in Jerusalem.

Paul, Democracy, and the Corinthians

Paul, Democracy, and the Corinthians

L. L. Welborn

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2026
sidottu
In this short and remarkable book L.L. Welborn outlines the complex and contested nature of ‘democracy’ in the Greek cities of the Roman East, where the apostle Paul established Christ groups, showing that writings of Paul and the development of Christianity reveal a strong and radical form of democracy that holds ever-greater relevance in today’s contentious political landscape. Welborn begins by showing how, paradoxically, language around the concept of democracy is largely absent from political thinkers in the first century. By contrast, we learn that Paul’s Corinthian correspondence is full of vocabulary associated with democracy, not only the term we know as “Church” (ekkesia) or “people’s assembly”, which the Christ-group adopted as a self-designation, but other terms with a democratic history and resonance such as eleutheria (“freedom”), paressia (“freedom of speech”), koinomia (“partnership”), isotes (“equality”). Moreover, as Welborn shows, several passages give evidence of democratic practices, such as voting (2 Cor. 2:6-8). Especially significant is the revelation that women were praying and prophesying in the assembly (1 Cor. 11:5), enacting a radical extension of the democratic-egalitarian ethos. In these chapters Welborn assesses the complex evidence of Paul’s Corinthian epistles in an attempt to answer the question: How “democratic” was the assembly of Christ followers at Corinth? If, as Welborn suggests, the answer is exceptionally “democratic,” at least in comparison with the political regime of first-century Roman Corinth, what consequence might this discovery have for those who are concerned about the failure of democracy today? Paul, Democracy, and the Corinthains is also available in audiobook format from audiobook retailers.

Paul's Use of the Old Testament in the Epistle to the Romans

Paul's Use of the Old Testament in the Epistle to the Romans

Gregory J Needham

Biblical Understanding
2021
pokkari
The intent of this study is not to comment on the Roman Epistle verse by verse, but to address the sections where the Apostle cites the Old Testament as reference.The Christ centered introduction that Paul writes of in Romans 1:2, referencing the gospel promise coming 'through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures', does not limit his Old Testament use to just the prophets, the references show that he considers all the Old Testament as the Word of God.The sacred writings the Christian Church accepted today as God's revelation are the same as the Apostle accepted and are authoritative. They are the 'Words of God' and have the final say on matters of the Christian Religion. Not to view the Scriptures in this light, puts anyone at odds with the sacred writings and the Lord Himself.
