Description
Summary:In this Ph.D. thesis, Mikael Sundkvist elicits the help of Greek Church Fathers to determine the meaning of four elusive passages in Paul—Gal. 6:2, 1 Cor. 9:21, and Rom. 3:27 and 8:2—which he groups together as the ‘Christian laws’. Though not every section ultimately proves valuable in advancing beyond contemporary exegetical impasses, Sundkvist’s overview does produce compelling readings for each of these difficult texts, providing validation for his methodology as potentially constructive for modern exegesis.
