Classical and hellenistic sources -- pt. II. The political Paul."The Political Paul presents Paul as a political thinker. Many studies claiming Paul for Greek Hellenism discuss the influence upon him of various aspects of Hellenistic culture, but strangely neglect Hellenistic political philosophy with its roots in Classical antiquity. The Political Paul explores this dimension of Paul's thought within the general context of Hellenistic political reflection to focus on the intriguing body of literature known as the Pythagorean pseudepigrapha. These researches support the highly original argument that Christianity has foundations in Hellenistic kingship theories. Paul constructs a political theory for Christianity. He conceives it as a polis-basileia system, politics proper and divine rule, each with its own dikaiosyne; this the study re-evaluates as a political concept."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Journal for the study of the New Testament.Supplement series ;210.Politics in the BibleBiblical studies & exegesisElectronic books.Politics in the Bible.227/.06Blumenfeld Bruno868358UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910461562203321The political Paul1938473UNINA
