Book Synopsis The Torah in the Ethics of Paul by : Martin Meiser
Download or read book The Torah in the Ethics of Paul written by Martin Meiser and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07-19 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between Paul and Torah is often discussed in terms of Paul's theology of salvation. However it is also important in Pauline ethics. Whilst some scholars dismiss this because of a paucity of Old Testament quotations in Paul, others hint at the consensus between Paul and early Jewish tradition concerning the content of single commands. Each of these positions holds consequences for describing the relationship between Paul and Judaism in general. In order to clarify the discussion the contributors to this volume distinguish strictly between various levels of Pauline theology: the correspondence of single demands within Pauline and early Jewish ethics concerning the content, the rationale of these single demands in comparison, and the general hermeneutic basis of ethics. This is done in the context of essays on the key Pauline passages pertaining to the debate. As such this volume presents an up-to-date window into the current European debate surrounding Paul, Torah and Ethics - and into the state of discussion surrounding Paul's place within Judaism.

Book Synopsis Paul, Scripture and Ethics by : Rosner
Download or read book Paul, Scripture and Ethics written by Rosner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-12-10 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul, Scripture and Ethics evaluates the widely held view that Scripture did not play an important role in the formation of Paul's ethics by investigating 1 Corinthians 5-7. It concludes that in spite of the relatively few quotations of Scripture and other indications to the contrary, Scripture is nevertheless a crucial and formative source for Paul's moral teaching. The major lines and many of the details of Paul's ethics in these chapters are traced back into the Scriptures, in most cases by way of Jewish sources. The conclusion is drawn that the Scriptures were for Paul not only “witness to the Gospel” but “written for our instruction”. The work has considerable implications for the study of Christian origins, the interpretation of the New Testament and for the question of Paul and the Law.

Book Synopsis Torah Ethics and Early Christian Identity by : Wendel & Miller
Download or read book Torah Ethics and Early Christian Identity written by Wendel & Miller and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the relationship between the Mosaic law and early Christian ethics In this volume thirteen respected scholars explore the relationship between the Mosaic law and early Christian ethics, examining early Christian appropriation of the Torah and looking at ways in which the law continued to serve as an ethical reference point for Christ-believers -- whether or not they thought Torah observance was essential. These noteworthy essays compare differences in interpretation and application of the law between Christians and non-Christian Jews; investigate ways in which Torah-inspired ethical practices helped Christ-believing communities articulate their distinct identities and social responsibilities; and look at how presentations of the law in early Christian literature might inform Christian social and ethical practices today. Posing a unified set of questions to a diverse range of texts, Torah Ethics and Early Christian Identity will stimulate new thinking about a complex phenomenon commonly overlooked by scholars and church leaders alike.
Book Synopsis The Ethical Teaching of Paul by : Mary Edith Andrews
Download or read book The Ethical Teaching of Paul written by Mary Edith Andrews and published by . This book was released on 1934 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work the author seeks to consider Paul and his teachings through an analysis of his social experience and, by studying his different letters, to build a concrete picture of the human situations with which he had to deal. Rather than depicting him as a theologian, she sees him as the missionary concerned with real problems of human need. Thus, she creates an image of Paul as a very human, practical man and not so much the intellectual theologian that he is so often considered. Originally published in 1934.

Download or read book Paul written by Paula Fredriksen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking new portrait of the apostle Paul, from one of today’s leading historians of antiquity Often seen as the author of timeless Christian theology, Paul himself heatedly maintained that he lived and worked in history’s closing hours. His letters propel his readers into two ancient worlds, one Jewish, one pagan. The first was incandescent with apocalyptic hopes, expecting God through his messiah to fulfill his ancient promises of redemption to Israel. The second teemed with ancient actors, not only human but also divine: angry superhuman forces, jealous demons, and hostile cosmic gods. Both worlds are Paul’s, and his convictions about the first shaped his actions in the second. Only by situating Paul within this charged social context of gods and humans, pagans and Jews, cities, synagogues, and competing Christ-following assemblies can we begin to understand his mission and message. This original and provocative book offers a dramatically new perspective on one of history’s seminal figures.
Book Synopsis Theology and Ethics in Paul and His Interpreters by : Eugene H. Lovering
Download or read book Theology and Ethics in Paul and His Interpreters written by Eugene H. Lovering and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This significant volume draws together an exceptional list of contributors to honor the life and work of Victor Paul Furnish. Doing credit to the focus and character of Furnish’s career as a scholar, educator, and churchman, the individual essays, and the volume as a whole, have been written in a way that renders them accessible to seminary students in the classroom and that builds substantially on Furnish’s own work. The book is structured in three parts: (1) Theology and Ethics in Paul (focusing on individual Pauline texts and on the broader themes, foundations, and context of Paul’s theological and ethical thought); (2) Theology and Ethics in Paul’s Earliest Interpreters (both in the NT and in the church which came to accept Paul’s letters as canonical); and (3) Paul in Contemporary Theology and Ethics (engaging Furnish’s own work as well as that of his colleagues and students in the area of Pauline theology and ethics).

Book Synopsis Law and Ethics in Early Judaism and the New Testament by : Stephen Westerholm
Download or read book Law and Ethics in Early Judaism and the New Testament written by Stephen Westerholm and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pious Jews of the Second Temple period sought to conform their lives to Torah, the law God had given Israel. Their different sects disagreed, however, on how to interpret particular laws and even on the question of who had the authority to interpret them. Jesus and his earliest followers, while focusing primarily on what they believed God was doing in their own day, were repeatedly confronted with issues raised by its relation to God's prior revelation in Torah. This volume contains studies by Stephen Westerholm devoted to the meaning and place of Torah in Early Judaism as well as to New Testament understandings, particularly those of the gospels and Pauline literature. Attention is also given to the "New Perspective on Paul," to recent discussions of justification and Paul's relation to Judaism, and to aspects of the transmission of Jesus tradition among his earliest followers.
Book Synopsis Jewish Law in Gentile Churches by : Markus Bockmuehl
Download or read book Jewish Law in Gentile Churches written by Markus Bockmuehl and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-11-20 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did the Gentile church keep Old Testament commandments about sex and idolatry, but disregard many others, like those about food or ritual purity? If there were any binding norms, what made them so, and on what basis were they articulated?In this important study, Markus Bockmuehl approaches such questions by examining the halakhic (Jewish legal) rationale behind the ethics of Jesus, Paul and the early Christians. He offers fresh and often unexpected answers based on careful biblical and historical study. His arguments have far-reaching implications not only for the study of the New Testament, but more broadly for the relationship between Christianity and Judaism.
