Description
Summary:Taking the problem of the resurrection faith as point of departure an attempt is made to construct the rhetorical situation of 1 Corinthians 15. It is argued that when the ""implied readers"" are distinguished from the ""deniers"" of the resurrection, the rhetorical problem concerns a crisis in loyalty. The implied readers are confronted with deciding between the authoritative, apostolic kerygma of Paul on the one hand, and the �kerygma� of the deniers on the other hand. The problem of the deceased is solved for the implied readers by means of sequential argumentation in which the pragmatic argument and the device of stages play an important role.
