Tóm tắt/ chú giải | : | More than anyone in recent decades, Gerd Theissen has directed New Testament scholarship toward the broader intellectual, interpretative cultures of our day. Using sociological, biological (the theory of evolution), and now psychological methodologies, Theissen is rescuing the study of biblical literature from the dangers of a back- water mentality. Even in his use of psychology, he is boldly eclectic, assessing the usefulness of three psychological approaches-he calls them learning, psychodynamic, and cognitive theories-for a deeper understanding of selected Pauline texts. That is, Theissen's approach remains exegetical and deals with what Paul intends to say through his writing. Whether or not one agrees with everything the author claims, his suggestions are always provocative of new, and perhaps deeper, insights into familiar passages. An exciting book! |
