Scripture, Texts, and Tracings in 1 Corinthians (Hardcover)

Hardcover. This book advances the interpretation of 1 Corinthians by exploring the ways the apostle Paul quoted or echoed Jewish scriptures more indirectly in his letter. Identification of allusions are brought to the fore, as are questions of the texture of Pauls theology and his understanding of scripture. Important topics in 1 Corinthians addressed here include Pauls use of the Law, monotheism, Christology, wisdom and mystery language, punishment of the incestuous man, baptism for the dead, eschatology, and resurrection. This book examines 1 Corinthians in relation to how Paul interpreted and applied the Jewish Scriptures and other texts, including those from the Pentateuch, Psalms, and Prophets.
