Pauline Hermeneutics

Exploring the "Power of the Gospel"

About this book

Paul's letters are of crucial importance for Christian theology and church life. The way in which the apostle Paul critically reflected on the meaning of the gospel message in light of Scripture, the traditions, ethics and Christian faith and hope, has had a significant and lasting impact on the Lutheran tradition.In this publication, the fourth and final in a series of LWF publications on biblical hermeneutics, renowned international scholars from the fields of biblical studies and systematic theology reevaluate to what extent twenty-first-century Lutherans can rediscover the Pauline paradigm of the "power of the Gospel" and hereby overcome ambiguous perceptions of the so-called "Lutheran reading(s)" of Paul.[Paulinische Hermeneutik. Die "Kraft des Evangeliums" erforschen]Die Briefe des Paulus haben eine grundlegende Bedeutung fĂŒr die christliche Theologie. Besonders die lutherischen Kirchen sind dauerhaft davon geprĂ€gt, wie Paulus als Apostel die Bedeutung des "Evangeliums" im Lichte der Auslegung von Schrift und Tradition sowie der Konzeption frĂŒhchristlicher Ethik und der Explikation von Hoffnung und Glaube herausgearbeitet und interpretiert hat.Die vorliegende Anthologie schließt einer Folge von vier LWB Publikationen zur biblischen Hermeneutik ab. International renommierte Bibelwissenschaftler und Systematische Theologen diskutieren, in welcher Weise lutherische Theologie im 21. Jahrhundert das paulinische Konzept von der "Kraft des Evangeliums" so wiederentdecken kann, dass ambivalente Vorstellungen von der sog. "Lutherischen Paulusperspektive" neu ĂŒberdacht und ĂŒberwunden werden können.
