Document Details : Title: A Matter of Method Subtitle: 2 Cor 4,13 and Stegman's Recent Study Author(s): LAMBRECHT, Jan Journal: Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses Volume: 84 Issue: 1 Date: 2008 Pages: 175-180 DOI: 10.2143/ETL.84.1.2030898 Abstract : Otherwise than Th. D. Stegman one should not suppose in 2 Corinthians the underlying story of the righteous sufferer depicted in Psalms 114–115 LXX. Paul does not read the quotation of Ps 115,1a in 2 Cor 4,13 christologically, i.e., as a self-testimony of the risen Jesus. Believing in this verse most probably means trusting, not being faithful. Stegman’s method overloads the text with more meaning than it can bear. |
