| Summary: | For Your Sake He Became Poor is the publication of Massinelli’s Ph.D. dissertation completed at the University of Notre Dame in 2019. This study positions itself within what the author calls an ‘exponential growth’ in scholarship on Paul’s collection in the last two decades (p. 3). The introduction lays out the primary thesis for the project in these terms:I propose that fears connected with a possible patron-client relationship between Corinth and Jerusalem and more widely associated with patronage … do not constitute the appropriate backdrop against which to understand Paul’s collection. I suggest, instead, that Paul drew not on a single but on several social conventions of gift exchange. (p. 39) |
