The focus of this work is on parallels between Old Testament and New Testament. We chose specific texts that will help us to show how these two parts of the Bible are connected. We want to examine Paul's use of Psalms in his First letter to Corinth and decide whether his quotations have similar theological context and motifs. We would like to present three main topics that are connecting Paul's use of the Psalms: human wisdom, God's sovereignty and Christ's sovereignty. The first one covers Psalm 94:11 in 1 Cor 3:20, the second one covers Psalms 24, 89 and 50 in 1 Cor 10:26 and the third covers Psalms 8 and 110 in 1 Cor 15:25,27. In addition to quotations we work with allusions which are included in mentioned chapters as well as one other chapter dealing with topic of Exodus in various psalms and Ps 31:25. Our goal is to prove that Paul had theological reasons to use Psalms in his First epistle to Corinth; therefore we conduct an exegesis of the passages above.

No. of bitstreams: 1 ISRAEL SERIQUE DOS SANTOS.pdf: 1767343 bytes, checksum: 8ab38c3ebd7bcc910e8f3a807d5c6b0a (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-12-14 / This thesis presents results of the research on the Christian glossolalia phenomenon in the first century from the First Epistle to the Corinthians (1Cor 12,12-26), having as focal point of analysis the relation between social status, charisma and relations of power. The data were analyzed under the prism of Conflict Analysis, using the instruments of bibliographic and exegetical research. This work is divided into three chapters. In the first chapter, it is discussed the history of the Roman Empire and the city of Corinth, trying to indicate the points of connection between them and how it, as an imperial colony, reproduced the values and social structures of Rome. In the second chapter, it is discussed the Christian church in Corinth, explaining the historical context of its origin, its ethnic, economic and social composition. Finally, in the third chapter, it is defended the idea that the glossolalia phenomenon was a symbol of power, in which part of the religious agents that belonged to the church, who had high status in Corinthian society, aligned themselves with the values and the social structure of the Roman Empire. / Esta Tese apresenta resultados da pesquisa sobre o fenômeno glossolálico cristão no primeiro século a partir da Primeira Epístola aos Coríntios (1Cor 12,12-26), tendo como ponto focal de análise a relação entre status social, carisma e relações de poder. Os dados foram analisados sob o prisma da Análise Conflitual, utilizando instrumentos da pesquisa bibliográfica e exegética. O trabalho está dividido em três capítulos. No primeiro capítulo, discorre-se sobre a história do Império Romano e da cidade de Corinto, procurando indicar os pontos de conexões entre eles e de que forma esta, como colônia imperial, reproduzia os valores e estruturas sociais de Roma. No segundo capítulo, disserta-se sobre a igreja cristã em Corinto, explicitando o contexto histórico de sua origem, sua composição étnica, econômica e social. Por fim, no terceiro capítulo, defende-se a ideia de que o fenômeno glossolálico era um símbolo de poder, no qual parte dos agentes religiosos pertencentes à igreja, os quais possuíam status elevado na sociedade coríntia, se alinhavam aos valores e à estrutura social do Império Romano.

This paper will look at the interpretation and translation of ἀρσενοκοῖται (1 Cor 6:9) in the list of people who will not inherit the kingdom of God. The word is mentioned in 1 Cor 6:9-10, and it has been translated in ways going from “homosexual”, “men who lay with men” and “sodomite” to “a man who lets others use himself or who uses others for debauchery” and “pedophile”. By looking at the views on sexuality, and male same-sex sexuality in particular, pertaining the Greco-Roman society and the Jewish culture contemporary to Paul, and also paying attention to the textual context as well as the context of the congregation in Corinth, the study has its aim set on finding what the word might have denoted to the first readers in the congregation in Corinth, and to Paul. The goal, then, is not to find a translation of the word ἀρσενοκοῖται that is literal, but to find one that is as close to a dynamic equivalent as is possible. This goal will, hopefully, be attained by giving the translation to the modern reader that is the one most likely to connote the same ideas and emotional connotations as the Greek word did in its original context. As the meaning of words change with time and context, there is a need for a translation that can bridge the gap created by that shift of meaning. Building that bridge in the case of ἀρσενοκοῖται is the goal of this paper. When the meaning, or meanings, that is found most likely to have been attained by the ancient readers is found, there will be a critical evaluation of some of the modern translations (and some a bit older) of the word in 1 Cor 6:9 to see if there already exists a translation that can be said to reach the goal of dynamic equivalence, given the meaning that is found most plausible in this paper. The study will argue that that is not the case, and therefore also propose a new translation, one that is argued to be closer to dynamic equivalence than those that has been evaluated. This translation is ”Men who sexually exploit men to gain social powers”. / Denna uppsats undersöker översättningen och tolkningen av ordet ἀρσενοκοῖται, det ord som avslutar 1 Kor 6:9 och är del av en lista över dem som inte kan ärva Guds rike (6:9-10). Ordet har översatts på olika sätt genom tiderna, med förslag som sträcker sig från “homosexuella”, “sodomiter”, “män som ligger med män” till “en man som låter utnyttja sig eller utnyttjar andra till osedlighet” och “pedofiler”. Genom att titta på hur sexualitet, och främst då manlig homosexualitet, sågs i den grekisk-romerska och judiska kontexten på Paulus tid, samt studera ordets litterära kontext och församlingens kontext i Korint, är målet att utröna vad ἀρσενοκοῖται bar med sig för betydelser och konnotationer för Paulus och de första mottagarna i Korint. Vad ett ord betyder är inte alltid statiskt över tid och rum utan förändras ofta, om än gradvis. Det riskerar därför att uppstå en klyfta mellan det som ordet från början innebar samt uppfattades som att det innebar, och hur det uppfattas idag. Den här uppsatsens mål är att överbrygga den klyftan för ἀρσενοκοῖται genom att ta reda på vad det grekiska ordet innebar i sin ursprungliga kontext och sedan ge en översättning som på bästa möjliga sätt ger en modern läsare konnotationer som i högsta möjliga grad stämmer överens med de konnotationer som de antika läsarna fick när de mötte ordet. Detta innebär alltså att målet inte är att ge en bokstavlig översättning av ἀρσενοκοῖται, utan en dynamisk ekvivalent översättning, där läsaren så långt det är möjligt får möjligheten att uppfatta det de första läsarna uppfattade. När den, eller de, meningar det är mest troligt att ordet bar med sig i sin ursprungliga kontext är konstaterade, kommer en kritisk utvärdering utifrån den slutsatsen göras av ett antal moderna översättningar (och några lite äldre), för att se om det finns en existerande översättning som uppnår dynamisk ekvivalens. Det kommer visa sig att så inte är fallet, och en ny översättning kommer därför att föreslås: ”Män som sexuellt utnyttjar män för att vinna social makt”.
