Description

Explore the origins of scriptural interpretation in this scholarly work from Cambridge University Press. In Paul, the Corinthians and the Birth of Christian Hermeneutics, Margaret M. Mitchell examines the mid-50s AD exchanges between Paul and the Corinthian community. This study looks at how Paul defined his message, his body, and his letters through various methods of understanding. Mitchell analyzes the tension in Paul's writing, where he sometimes insists on a literal reading and at other times encourages readers to find a deeper meaning beyond the written word. By proposing a new approach to early Christian exegesis, the book demonstrates how Paul developed the foundational principles used by later authors to interpret all scripture. Originally presented as The Speaker's Lectures in Biblical Studies at Oxford University, this volume provides a detailed look at the development of early Christian thought and the methods used to interpret sacred texts.
