About this title

Synopsis

Explore how Paul weighs liberty against duty in a rigorous, verse-by-verse study.

This volume offers a detailed look at Paul’s claims of apostleship, his rights in the early church, and the logic behind his practice of abnegation as he guides the Corinthian community.

Goded’s commentary delves into the pivotal sections of Paul’s discussions about meat offered to idols, the right to maintenance, and the broader theme of Christian liberty. It presents a careful reconstruction of the historical context and the apostle’s argument, helping readers understand how Paul defends his authority while modeling humility in ministry. The discussion foregrounds how faith, hope, and charity shape the Christian life and what remains when gifts cease in the coming perfect state.

Close readings of key Greek terms and their meanings in context
Exploration of Paul’s defense of his apostleship and rights
Analysis of the theme of abnegation and its practical implications for ministry
Discussion of faith, hope, and charity as enduring virtues

Ideal for readers of biblical exegesis, church history, and those seeking a thorough, scholarly treatment of Paul’s letters in the Corinthian context.

About the Author

Frederic Louis Godet (1812-1900), one of the most influential Swiss Protestant Reformed scholars of his day was educated at the University of Neuchatel in Switzerland, studied Theology at Bonn and Berlin and was ordained to the ministry in 1836. From 1850 to 1873, he was professor of Biblica Exegesis and Critical Theology at the Theological School of the National Swiss Church of the canton. In 1873, he became one of the founders of the Free Evangelical Church of Neuchatel, professor of New Testament Exegesis in the Free Evangelical Theological School and a firm defender of the Orthodox Christian faith in a growing sea of liberalism. Among Godet's best known writings are Commentary on Luke, Commentary on John, Commentary on Romans, Commentary on First corinthians, Studies in the Old Testament, STudies in the NEw Testament, STudies in Paul's Epistles, and Lectures in Defense of the Christian Faith.
