Cosmology and Self in the Apostle Paul: The Material Spirit. By T. Engberg-Pedersen

This is the sequel to Engberg-Pedersen’s Paul and the Stoics (T & T Clark, 2000).

Zusammenfassung:This is the sequel to Engberg-Pedersen’s Paul and the Stoics (T & T Clark, 2000). His concern here is to argue that to read Paul adequately we have to keep both cognitive and ‘purely physical’ (or ‘concretely cosmological’) perspectives in place. This includes as fundamental the recognition that Paul understood the pneuma (Spirit) as a ‘through and through material, bodily phenomenon’, his basic, philosophical reference point being ‘materialistic and monistic Stoicism’, rather than ‘immaterialistic and dualistic Platonism’., Engberg-Pedersen’s starting point is Paul’s (a Stoic) understanding of the ‘spiritual body’ of 1 Corinthians 15, as ‘materialistic, concrete and tangible’.
