Summary: | This article examines the history of Albert Schweitzer’s study of Paul, which culminated in probably his most important New Testament work, The Mysticism of Paul the Apostle . In it an attempt is made to address the question of the origins of Schweitzer’s singular theory about the apostle’s theology and the influences behind it. The claim is made that Schweitzer arrived at his theory relatively early, possibly by 1902. The article also addresses the question as to why Schweitzer decided to pen Mysticism so late, in 1930, when he had ceased to be a New Testament scholar and was engaged with work of a different kind. |
