The Benefits Outweigh the Costs: Divine Benefaction and Human Obedience in 2Cor 6,1–7,2
When 2Cor 6,1-13 and 7,2 are viewed primarily as self-defence intended to facilitate reconciliation, it is likely that 6,14-7,1 will be handled as a digression or an interpolation. But when 6,1-13 and 7,2 are read as part of an appeal for obedience directed at reluctant readers, the appearance of pu...

| Zusammenfassung: | When 2Cor 6,1-13 and 7,2 are viewed primarily as self-defence intended to facilitate reconciliation, it is likely that 6,14-7,1 will be handled as a digression or an interpolation. But when 6,1-13 and 7,2 are read as part of an appeal for obedience directed at reluctant readers, the appearance of purity exhortations in 6,14-7,1 becomes predictable given everything we know about the Corinthians. Leveraging a careful re-reading of 6,12-14, the present essay argues that 6,14-7,1 should be viewed as central to this section of 2 Corinthians, and Paul’s defensiveness in the surrounding text should be interpreted first and foremost in relation to objections to his purity policies. |
