Abstract

L'esistenza nel mondo classico di un potere pubblico a partecipazione cristiana, precedente la "cristianizzazione" della legislazione e delle istituzioni imperiali, è un'ipotesi plausibile, esistono precisi indizi documentali. Tuttavia, l'interesse degli storici non si è quasi mai rivolto alle specificità teologiche, socio-economiche e psicologiche di questa presenza politica. Questo saggio si propone di ricostruire la genealogia del politico cristiano nell'impero "pagano", un personaggio culturalmente "scomodo" e storiograficamente inedito. Emerge, così, una figura del rimosso culturale cristiano, finalmente liberata come risorsa per raccontare un'altra storia, che interseca teologia politica, storia del cristianesimo antico, storia delle religioni e storia sociale

Abstract

This volume examines 1 Corinthians 1-4 within first-century politics, demonstrating the significance of Corinth's constitution to the interpretation of Paul's letter. Bradley J. Bitner shows that Paul carefully considered the Roman colonial context of Corinth, which underlay numerous ecclesial conflicts. Roman politics, however, cannot account for the entire shape of Paul's response. Bridging the Hellenism-Judaism divide that has characterised much of Pauline scholarship, Bitner argues that Paul also appropriated Jewish-biblical notions of covenant. Epigraphical and papyrological evidence indicates that his chosen content and manner are best understood with reference to an ecclesial politeia informed by a distinctively Christ-centred political theology. This emerges as a 'politics of thanksgiving' in 1 Corinthians 1:4-9 and as a 'politics of construction' in 3:5-4:5, where Paul redirects gratitude and glory to God in Christ. This innovative account of Paul's political theology offers fresh insight into his pastoral strategy among nascent Gentile-Jewish assemblies.

Abstract

In this book Bruce Winter explores the varied responses of the first Christians to requirements to render divine honors to the Caesars as the conventional public expression of loyalty to Rome and its rulers. How did they cope with the culture of emperor worship when they were required to give their undivided loyalty to Jesus? First examining the significant primary evidence of emperor worship and the enormous societal pressure the first Christians would have faced to participate in it, Winter then looks at specific New Testament evidence in light of his findings. He examines individual cities and provinces and the different ways in which Christians responded to the pressure to fulfill their obligations as citizens and participate in the conventional expressions of loyalty to the Roman Empire.
