Paul's Glory-Christology: Tradition and Rhetoric (Supplements to Novum Testamentum) Description
In 1927 C.A.A. Scott, while commenting on the apostle Paul's Christology, remarked that the "history of the word Glory in the Bible has yet to be written". By using methodology developed in semantics, semiotics, and, more generally, literary theory, Newman examines the origin and rhetoric of Paul's Glory-Christology. The investigation involves three distinct tasks: to plot the tradition-history of Glory which formed part of Paul's linguistic world; to examine Paul's letter, in light of the reconstructed tradition-history of Glory, in order to discern the rationale of Paul's identification of Christ as Glory; and to map out the implications of such an identification for Paul's theological and rhetorical strategy.
