Description: The Theology of the Second Letter to the Corinthians by Jerome Murphy-O'Connor Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description In this survey, Father Murphy-OConner provides the background and the social, religious and economic situation to the dialogue of Pauls Second letter. Integrating such background information into a flowing exposition of the apostles thoughts brings his theology to life by highlighting the complex interplay of factors which prompted him to write as he did. Publisher Description The Second Letter to the Corinthians is one of Pauls most intriguing epistles. In reality, it comprises two documents. In the first, Paul cautiously attempts to repair the damage done to his relations with the Corinthians by an earlier letter (1 Corinthians) and to deal with the upset caused by the presence in Corinth of rival missionaries from Jerusalem. In the second, he reacts angrily against an unexpected further deterioration of the situation at Corinth. The resonances in the dialogue between Paul and the parties in question cannot be detected easily without some awareness on the readers part of the social, religious, and economic situation of the Christian community to which Paul was writing. The aim of this book is to integrate such background information into a flowing exposition of the apostles thought, and thus to bring Pauls theology to life by highlighting the complex interplay of factors which prompted him to write in the way he did. Father Murphy-OConnor is an experienced New Testament scholar, and his lucid survey - while providing an accessible introduction to the epistle and its central concerns - brings new insights into the relation of Christ to the ministry of the church.
