Paul the Apostle
Author: J. Albert Harrill
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139576542
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
This book is a controversial new biography of the apostle Paul that argues for his inclusion in the pantheon of key figures of classical antiquity, along with the likes of Socrates, Alexander the Great, Cleopatra and Augustus. It first provides a critical reassessment of the apostle's life in its historical context that focuses on Paul's discourse of authority, which was both representative of its Roman context and provocative to his rivals within Roman society. It then considers the legend that developed around Paul as the history of his life was elaborated and embellished by later interpreters, creating legends that characterized the apostle variously as a model citizen, an imperial hero, a sexual role model, an object of derision and someone to quote from. It is precisely this rewriting of Paul's history into legend that makes the apostle a key transformative figure of classical antiquity.

Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ, His Life and Work, His Epistles and His Doctrine, Vol. 1
Author: Ferdinand Christian Baur
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780266570707
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ: His Life and Work, His Epistles and His Doctrine - Volume One is one of the most significant theological undertakings of Dr. Ferdinand Christian Baur. Baur was a German theologian, well known for studies of The Bible, who lived until 1860. Baur's central argument throughout Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ is that the relationship between Paul the Apostle and the Jewish Christians was not as harmonious as it had often been made out to be in theological texts. The first section of the book examines the life and work of the Apostle Paul, including historical details on Paul's first missionary journey, Paul's dealing with the elder Jewish Christian Apostles, and his eventual arrest, imprisonment, and martyrdom in Rome. The second part of the book examines Paul's epistles as they are presented in the New Testament. His epistles to the Galatians, Corinthians, and Romans are all examined separately and in great detail. Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ is a book that has particular appeal to those interested in theological matters. It is a deep book, and one that expects, although does not rely on, the reader to be familiar with much of the subject matter. Ferdinand Christian Baur is a noted theologian, and his work in Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ: His Life and Work, His Epistles and His Doctrine - Volume One demonstrates why. This book is a thorough examination of the subject matter, and one that will appeal greatly to those with an interest in theology.

Representatives of Roman Rule
Author: Joshua Yoder
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110391422
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
Luke-Acts contains a wealth of material that is relevant to politics, and the relationship between Jesus and his followers and the Roman Empire becomes an issue at a number of points. The author's fundamental attitude toward Rome is hard to discern, however. The complexity of Luke's task as both a creative writer and a mediator of received tradition, and perhaps as well the author's own ambivalence, have left conflicting evidence in the narrative. Scholarly treatments of the issue have tended to survey in a relatively short scope a great amount of material with different degrees of relevance to the question and representing different proportions of authorial contribution and traditional material. This book attempts to make a contribution to the discussion by narrowing the focus to Luke's depiction of the Roman provincial governors in his narrative, interpreted in terms of his Greco-Roman literary context. Luke's portraits of Roman governors can be seen to invoke expectations and concerns that were common in the literary context. By these standards Luke's portrait of these Roman authority figures is relatively critical, and demonstrates his preoccupation with Rome's judgment of the Christians more than a desire to commend Roman rule.

Paul, the Apostle of Jesus Christ
Author: Ferdinand Christian Baur
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 0227178807
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
F.C. Baur’s monumental study Paul, the Apostle of Jesus Christ (1845) is one of the greatest works of all time on the Apostle to the Gentiles. Laying the basis for modern Pauline scholarship, its three sections in turn thoroughly deconstruct the account of Paul found in Acts, examine the authentic, deuteron-Pauline and Pastoral Epistles, and draw the various strands of Paul’s thought into a cohesive whole. In the first two parts Baur’s historical-critical skills are at their finest, while in the third the influence of Hegel and Schleiermacher can be seen as Baur presents a comprehensive synthesis of Pauline theology. Since the original nineteenth-century English translation of Baur’s masterpiece is no longer adequate, Hodgson and Brown’s new edition will serve as the definitive resource for future scholarship. They not only present a new translation of the German, but also provide critical annotations and translations of all the scriptural passages originally quoted in Greek. Baur on Paul becomes truly available in English for the first time.
