Description
Summary:In the study of Paul's use of the Scriptures of Israel the question regarding his conscious hermeneutical awareness is often neglected. Recently wider acknowledgement has been given to Paul's scriptural quotations and allusions, spawning also a wide range of theories concerning his reasons and motives for it, as well discussion on his methods and techniques. However, it is equally important to consider whether Paul himself consciously reflected on his dialogical engagement with Scripture. A number of texts suggest that, without promoting an earlier equivalent of a hermeneutical theory or practice, Paul indeed accounted for various aspects of his use of Scripture. With reference to a few such passages from his letters, Paul seems to suggest the ongoing value of Scripture for contemporary readers and the importance of transmitted traditions. Some rudimentary and broad hermeneutical thoughts can also be listed as being indicative of Paul's hermeneutical awareness.
