The faith of Jesus Christ: an analysis of Paul's use of pistis ChristouYong, Kukwah Philemon 01 December 2003 (has links)
[Greek words romanized in title and description]
This dissertation defends the thesis that the Pauline phrase, pistis Christou
("faith of Christ" [Rom 3:22,26; Gal 2:16, 20; 3:22; Phil 3:9; Eph 3:12]), in its various
contexts, is best translated as "faith in Christ" (objective genitive) and not
"faith/faithfulness of Christ" (subjective genitive). Chapter 1 surveys the history of the
debate from 1795 to the present.
Chapter 2 gives an overview of the use of pistis ("faith") in the LXX and the
rest of the NT corpus outside of Paul's letters. It is argued that the LXX usage of pistis
supports the subjective genitive interpretation, but the NT usage argues for the objective
genitive interpretation.
Chapter 3 investigates the use of "faith" in the writings of the apostolic fathers.
The research shows that the fathers use pistis along the lines of NT writers and the
evidence from their writings also supports our thesis concerning the pistis Christou
phrase in Paul.
Chapter 4 addresses the nature of the genitive case, Paul's use of the genitives
Christou, kuriou, and Theou. Also in chapter 4, the main arguments made in defense of
the Subjective genitive interpretation are summarized and evaluated.
Chapters 5-7 are exegetical in nature and make up the core of this dissertation.
Arguments are made from the context of each letter in which the pistis Christou phrase
appears (Romans, Galatians, and Philippians). First, the meaning of pistis Christou is
sought in its immediate context and the results evaluated in light of the broader context of
each letter. We found that in all these instances, the reading "faith in Christ" for pistis Christou is the more probable reading in context.
Chapter 8 summarizes the results of this investigation and evaluates the thesis
proposed in this dissertation. Appendices 1-4 cover topics such as (1) why the debate is
limited to the subjective and objective genitives (appendix 1), (2) examples of subjective
and objective genitives in the NT (appendix 2), (3) pistis in the rest of Paul's letters
(appendix 3), and (4) pistis Christou in Ephesians 3:12 (appendix 4). / This item is only available to students and faculty of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

The ethics of the enactment and reception of cruciform love : a comparative lexical, conceptual, exegetical/theological study of Colossians 3:1-17 and the patterns of thought which have influenced it in their grammatical/historical contextFrederick, John January 2014 (has links)
This thesis aims to compare the words and governing ethical pattern of thought in the catalogue of virtues and vice in Colossians 3:5, 8, 12-17 to Greco-Roman and Jewish texts that are antecedent to, or contemporaneous with the writings of the apostle Paul and the Epistle to the Colossians. In carrying out this study, I will interact with and critique the arguments of scholars who have proposed that Paul and the author of Colossians are operating from a Stoic, Cynic or Aristotelian governing ethical pattern of thought. I will demonstrate that such positions are called into question in light of the lack of both central Greco-Roman ethical terms, and the lack of essential ethical concepts in both the generally agreed upon genuine Pauline epistles and in the Epistle to the Colossians in particular. Lastly, I will combine the results of the comparative studies of Colossians and the Greco-Roman and Jewish sources with an exegesis of Colossians in order to propose that: (i) the ethical terms of Colossians - while incidentally and peripherally influenced by the various Hellenistic ethical schools of thought - are most directly influenced by words found in the texts of the Jewish traditions, (ii) several of the ethical terms used by the author of Colossians are largely absent from and certainly uncommon in the Greco-Roman sources surveyed but widely attested in the Jewish sources, and that (iii) the author of Colossians presents his ethical material through an inherited binary format derived from the Jewish Two Ways tradition that is driven by a governing pattern of thought which focuses on Christlike transformation through the enactment and reception of cruciform love.

The Phenomenon of Social Presence in the Pauline Epistles and Its Implication for Practices of Online EducationJackson, Christopher Dwight 31 March 2015 (has links)
Many theological institutions have adopted online educational formats. Proponents of online formats in theological education have typically given pragmatic justifications for the use of online formats while the most vocal detractors of online formats base their objections on theological concerns. This thesis gives a greater theological foundation for the use of online formats in theological education by demonstrating that Paul believed that Christian formation could be effected from a distance via the epistle. Specifically, this thesis shows that Paul held beliefs about the capability of the epistle to act as a personal proxy. Paul therefore displays an educational strategy that utilizes the strengths of both face-to-face education and distance education via the epistle while compensating for weaknesses in each format. Paul's practice would suggest that theological institutions might have the opportunity to do the same: take stock of the strengths and weaknesses of both face-to-face and online formats, utilize the strengths of each, and compensate for the weaknesses of each.
