Additional Info
Dr Engberg-Pedersen shows how a range of problems encountered in twentieth-century interpretation of three major Pauline letters (Philippians, Galatians, Romans) may be overcome by reading the epistles in the light of ancient Stoic ethics.
He discusses literary, conceptual and theological issues: for example, the unity and purpose of the letters; the relationship in the letters between theology and ethics; the logical character and shape of Pauline exhortation; the relationship in Paul between cognition and participation; the meaning of righteousness from faith; Paul’s handling of the Jewish law. The author illuminates the central core of Paul’s thought by applying the Stoic perspective and argues that scholars must move beyond the traditional Judaism/Hellenism divide to read a comprehensive and accurate reading of Paul’s lettrs.
