Abstract

In this volume of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture, Philip Krey and Peter Krey guide readers with care through a diversity of Reformation-era commentary on the second half of Paul's letter to the Roman church. Among the difficult issues addressed by were the predestination of God's elect, the destiny of Israel, the role of Gentiles in salvation history, the ethical demands of the Christian life, and the Christian's relationship to the state. Here, readers will encounter familiar voices and discover lesser-known figures from a variety of theological traditions, including Lutherans, Reformed, Radicals, Anglicans, and Roman Catholics. The volume draws on a variety of resources, including commentaries, sermons, treatises, and confessions, much of which appears here for the first time in English. Gathering together these Reformation-era reflections, it provides resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to better understand the depth and breadth of Reformation biblical commentary and aids the ongoing transformation of the minds--and lives--of people today.

Abstract

Robert Lewis examines Paul's use of the phrase "Spirit of Adoption" in Romans 8:12-17 against the background of its Roman Imperial context in order to shed light on interpretation of Paul's Letter to the Romans. Whereas other scholars have explored what Paul may have meant when he uses the term "adoption" Lewis instead explores the reasons behind Paul's coupling of it with the term "spirit". Having examined theories for a possible Jewish antecedent for Paul's use of this phrase, and found them less than persuasive, Lewis unlocks the data within the term's Roman Imperial context that significantly clarifies what Paul means when he uses the phrase "Spirit of adoption". Lewis shows that when Paul wrote his letter to the Romans, adoption had become a feature of Imperial succession. Roman religion gave a great deal of prominence to the Roman family spirit - the genius. The Emperor's genius became identified as a deity in Roman religion and its veneration was widespread in Rome as well as the provinces. When Romans 8.12-17 is read against this background, a very different kind of exegetical picture emerges

Abstract

Ce commentaire de l'épître aux Romains de Karl Barth est un classique de la pensée théologique par l'un des plus importants auteurs protestants du XXe siècle. En publiant la seconde édition de son commentaire de l'épître aux Romains, Karl Barth est allé au-devant des besoins profonds des théologiens de la jeune génération qui suivit la Première Guerre mondiale, dont Dietrich Bonhoeffer qui y fait souvent référence dans son oeuvre. Partant d'une théologie de la crise, apostrophant Dieu comme le "Tout-Autre" et accueillant au sein de sa théologie l'idée de la différence qualitative infinie entre Dieu et l'Homme, Karl Barth propose une lecture de l'épître aux Romains audacieuse et renouvelée dont l'actualité étonne encore aujourd'hui.

Abstract

Paul quotes and alludes to a great variety of Old Testament scriptural sources as he writes his epistle to the Romans. Yet among these scriptural sources the apostle evidences a unique indebtedness to the prophecy of Isaiah. Robert C. Olson explains how, from this great prophecy and its redemptive narrative centering in "the proclamation of good news," Paul derives all the major facets of the gospel he sets forth in the epistle.

Abstract

Paul and the Rise of the Slave locates Paul’s description of himself as a “slave of Messiah Jesus” in the epistolary prescript of Paul’s Epistle to Rome within the conceptual world of those who experienced the social reality of slavery in the first century C.E. The Althusserian concept of interpellation and the Life of Aesop are employed throughout as theoretical frameworks to enhance how Paul offered positive ways for slaves to imagine an existence apart from Roman power. An exegesis of Romans 6:12-23 seeks to reclaim the earliest reception of Romans as prophetic discourse aimed at an anti-Imperial response among slaves and lower class readers.
