Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to ongoing debates on the apostle Paul's life and teaching and his letters' ramifications for the Church of today. The apostle Paul was a vital force in the development of Christianity. Paul's historical and religious context affects the theological interpretation of Paul's writings, no small issue in the whole of Christian theology. Recent years have seen much controversy about the apostle Paul, his religious and social context, and its effects on his theology. In the helpful Counterpoints format, four leading scholars present their views on the best framework for describing Paul's theological perspective, including his view of salvation, the significance of Christ, and his vision for the churches. Contributors and views include: Reformed View: Thomas R. Schreiner Catholic View: Luke Timothy Johnson Post-New Perspective View: Douglas Campbell Jewish View: Mark D. Nanos Like other titles in the Counterpoints: Bible and Theology collection, Four Views on the Apostle Paul gives theology students the tools they need to draw informed conclusions on debated issues. General editor and New Testament scholar Michael F. Bird covers foundational issues and provides helpful summaries in his introduction and conclusion. New Testament scholars, pastors, and students of Christian history and theology will find Four Views on the Apostle Paul an indispensable introduction to ongoing debates on the apostle Paul's life and teaching. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Epistles of Paul the Apostle, Vol. 4 of 4: Translated, With an Exposition, and Notes To the apostle, inviting him into Macedonia. Be garding this as a divine suggestion, Paul and his companions immediately crossed the sea to Neac polis, and thence advanced to Philippi, a consider able city of that district of Macedonia, where they preached the gospel with great success, and con verted many. But Paul having restored to her senses a young woman who was insane, her keep ers, who had exhibited her as inspired, and who had enriched themselves by vending her supposed ora cles, enraged at their loss, excited the indignation of the magistrates and populace against the apo stles, who were severely beaten and imprisoned, without being heard in their own defence. This transaction is related by Luke, who was an eye witness, and probably a fellow-sufferer, Acts xvi. After they were set at liberty, and the magistrates, at the requisition of the apostle, had made proper concessions for their illegal and brutal behaviour.

Download or read book The Apostle Paul written by Stanley E. Porter and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive introduction to the apostle Paul, Stanley Porter devotes serious consideration both to the background and major contours of Paul’s thought and to the unique contributions of each of his letters. Porter begins by introducing the Pauline tradition and outlining the basics of Paul’s life, the chronology of his ministry, and his several imprisonments. Porter then discusses the background to Paul’s thought, examines some of the major themes of his writings, and treats issues concerning the Pauline epistles, such as pseudonymity and canon. Finally, Porter delves into all thirteen of Paul’s letters individually, placing them within their historical contexts and examining critical issues relating to the content and interpretation of each letter. The result is a thorough, balanced treatment of one of the most important figures in Christianity.

Download or read book The Epistles of St Paul Vol 1 written by Charles Jerome Callan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Epistles of St. Paul, Vol. 1: With Introductions and Commentary for Priests and Students If, in some instances, a reading has been preferred, which has not the support of the best MSS., the reason is that the context and other critical arguments have seemed rather to favor the reading adopted. All criticism of the text which has been deemed necessary, has, furthermore, been made to accompany each verse, rather than put in the Introduction, simply because this has appeared to be more convenient and practical for the student. Every Chapter of the text has been separated into its natural divisions, preceded by an appropriate heading. A summary of the section then follows, before the examination and exposition of the single verses. Great care has been taken everywhere to trace and indicate the connection of thought and doctrine between verses, sections and chapters. It has been the aim throughout to give all that may be needed to satisfy the ordinary requirements of the classroom, without bewildering or confusing the student, on the one hand, or wishing to restrict desirable elaborations by the professor, on the other hand. Let us hope the work may be found adequate, at least in part, to the end and purpose for which it has been undertaken.

Download or read book Jewish Traditions in Early Christian Literature Volume 1 Paul and the Jewish Law written by Peter Tomson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While interest in Paul's relationship to Judaism has been growing recently, this study adds an important aspect by comparing Paul’s practical instruction with the ancient halakha or Jewish traditional law. First Corinthians is found to be a source of prime importance, and surprisingly, halakha appears to be basic to Paul's instruction for non-Jewish Christians. The book includes thorough discussion of hermeneutic and methodological implications, always viewed in relation to the history of Pauline and Judaic study. Attention is also being paid to the setting within Hellenistic culture. Finally, conclusions are drawn about the texture of Paul's thought and these are applied to two ‘theological’ passages decisive for his place in Judaism. Historical and theological implications are vast, both regarding Paul's relationship to Judaism, his attitude towards Jesus and his Apostles, and the meaning of his teaching concerning justification and the Law.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Epistles of Paul the Apostle, Vol. 2 of 4: Translated, With an Exposition, and Notes Nevertheless, after the departure Of Apollos, the newly formed church at Corinth soon fell into great disorder.

This dangerous teacher succeeded but too well in alienating the minds of many Of the giddy and volatile Corinthians from the simple and Offensive truths, and from the self-denying precepts Of the gospel, as well as from their veneration and affection for their first teacher; while others adhered to the apostle's doctrine, and remained strongly attached to his person and au thority. Thus the church was divided into two parties, one of which ranged themselves under the standard Of the false apostle, and thought and spoke meanly Of the doctrine and the authority of Paul; while the wiser and better part Of the society ad hered to their first teacher, and, in their zeal to sup.
