Description

Explore the deep connections between early Christian thought and ancient philosophy with Cynics, Paul and the Pauline Churches: Cynics and Christian Origins II. In this scholarly work, F. Gerald Downing examines the teachings of Paul and argues that the development of his preaching and the early Pauline Church was heavily influenced by the views of vagabond Cynic philosophers. These thinkers were known for their critiques of the gods and the established ethos of civic society. Downing provides a detailed examination of New Testament writings to explain how Paul was perceived by his culturally and ethnically diverse converts and disciples. This book offers a lucid Pauline commentary that presents ground-breaking views of Paul and his message. It is an essential resource for readers interested in ancient history, the origins of Christianity, and the philosophical roots of the New Testament.
