Pauline thought on suffering : a historical-religious investigationMoses, Nalini 11 1900 (has links)
This research conducted according to the phenomenological method investigated the Pauline concept of suffering. It traces the historical development in Paul's thinking on suffering. The two lines of Paul's suffering are his personal
suffering - his struggle with the thorn in the flesh; and his suffering through persecution for Christ's sake. It is
through his personal suffering that Paul endears himself to his readers. 2 Cor.12:1-10 reveals the function of the thorn - it brings vindication. Paul's personal suffering merges with his suffering for Christ, and the note of joy, hope, glory and vindication is emphasized. Just as Paul shares in Christ's suffering, he will share in the victory and glory too. Paul sees his suffering in the light of Christ's suffering and the suffering of his readers in the light of
his suffering. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.A. (Religious Studies)
