| Riepilogo: | This work is yet another revival of the dual-origin hypothesis as proposed by Spitta, and which is best known through the work of Lietzmann. In terms of previous attempts the argument is perhaps closest to that of Fuller, of whose work Stringer is apparently unaware. Like Fuller, he suggests that the meal regulated by Paul in 1 Corinthians was not a weekly gathering but a Passover meal. The problem with this hypothesis, historically, is that of explaining how an annual event might lend meaning to a weekly event. Stringer solves this, whilst unaware of previous debate, by suggesting that the eucharist had not originally been weekly, but that a weekly gathering was a later development., This suggestion that there was no weekly meal gathering is the most interesting part of the argument. |
