Résumé
This book explores the Apostle Paul's preaching within the complex socio-cultural, religious, and political context of the Greco-Roman world. Paul's mission unfolded across major Mediterranean cities, such as Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, and Rome, where he encountered the diverse philosophical traditions, pagan religious practices, and imperial ideology of the Roman Empire. By situating Paul's message in the framework of Roman political structures, Greek intellectualism, and the economic and religious dynamics of urban life, this book provides a deeper understanding of how Paul navigated these challenges and shaped the early Christian movement. The book examines how Paul's message of Christ's lordship clashed with the Roman imperial cult, which deified the emperor, and how his teachings on freedom and equality subverted social hierarchies, including those concerning slavery and gender.
It also delves into the tension between Jewish and Gentile converts, highlighting Paul's role in redefining the relationship between the Law and faith in Christ. Furthermore, the book explores Paul's eschatology, which presented a radical hope in the resurrection and the coming of Christ's kingdom, offering both comfort and challenge to believers living under Roman rule. By providing a detailed analysis of Paul's interactions with Greek philosophy, Roman law, and the social customs of the time, this book offers insights into the transformative power of his message and the far-reaching legacy of his teachings.
Paul's vision of a united Christian community, transcending ethnic, social, and cultural boundaries, continues to influence Christian theology and practice today.
