Description
Summary:Juan-Luis Segundo tries a new psychological interpretation of Rom 7, which differs essentially from the German exegetic tradition. Instead of collecting a maximum of objective data, Segundo gives priority to the internal logic of the text. – The I, dominated by anxiety, follows the law to avoid any mistake. So it is lead in conflict with his desire for pleasure who will offer resistance, making impossible the acomplishment of law. Bruised by both, law and pleasure, the I is more and more dominated by anxiety (7,7–13). Beyond anxiety, in consciousness of sonship, there is another obstacle to creative liberty. Man is not only spirit, creativity, but also matter who tends to avoid suffering. The I can't get creative without material instruments, who ignore his intentions and may break them (7,14–23). – Segundo's interpretation shows that psychological abstracts can apport essential progress to both, exegesis and systematic theology.
