Riepilogo: | Paul's strange confession in Gal 2.19-20 poses a question: is the I' who was crucified with Christ and no longer lives the same self as the I' who now lives and in whom Christ lives? To ask this question is to be drawn into conversation with the reception history of Galatians and also to be invited to locate the Pauline I' in and across the movements from death to life. This article suggests, in dialogue especially with Martin Luther, that for Paul the movement from the state of creation to the state of sin is a movement from life to death; the movement from sin to salvation, conversely, is a movement from death to life. Within or across these ruptures, salvation is as radical as death and resurrection. In this sense, the no longer and now living selves are not identical: the I' is in another as a gift. And yet, the I' who lives by grace is also the I' who was, is and will be loved by the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.' |
