Summary: | Paul in Athens has preached to Jew and Gentile much before his Areopagus speech (17,17); thus, his Areopagus speech is a precise answer to a major problem eventuating from those preachings. To explain better his kerygma about Jesus, Paul must explain the plan of God which ends with Jesus being judge of all people. As well, 17,16 prepares one for Paul's forceful criticism of idol worship in Athens. Paul à Athènes avait prêché aux juifs et aux gentils bien avant son discours sur l'Aréopage (17, 17). Ainsi, son discours est une réponse précise à un problème majeur issu de ces prédications. Pour mieux expliquer son kérygme à propos de Jésus, Paul doit exposer le plan de Dieu, qui s'achève en Jésus, juge de toutes les nations. Aussi bien, 17, 16 prépare les auditeurs à sa sévère critique du culte idolâtrique à Athènes. |
