| Summary: | This study examines John Chrysostom's exegesis on the resurrection in 1 Cor15, found in homilies 38-39 on 1 Corinthians. It indicates that John Chrysostom believes in carnis resurrectio, and especially emphasizes this as amelioration against Manichaeism. He also implements an oikonomia of the resurrection,stating that there are hierarchies among resurrected bodies, differing in heavenly reward or fiery punishment. Most importantly, the resurrection functions as an important aspect for the controlling of bodies and promoting a pro-ascetic sentiment over and against the urban temptations of Antioch. It concludes with a synthesis - a discussion of key motifs in Chrysostom's exegesis on the resurrection and its significance for a cultural historical glimpse into the ascetic mind. |
