• W66546871 abstract "Corinthian correspondence reveals that the apostle Paul was deeply engaged polemics with his opponents and critics Corinth, who questioned his modus operandi and challenged his apostolic authority. Paul's response, which was both ironical and paradoxical, was based on his own understanding of the cross of Christ, which divine power was demonstrated through apparent human weakness. This thesis attempts show that Paul's response, which involved many kinds of body language, was nothing less than a drastic inversion of the social ethos of his time. Unlike his Corinthian critics who apparently followed the current Greco-Roman ethos, Paul was operating on a world view which was diametrically opposed it. This thesis consists of three Parts. Part I is on crucifixion antiquity, which was a most powerful body language, compared with the ancient idea of noble death both Greco-Roman and Maccabean traditions, according which the crucifixion of Jesus could only be a most vivid and terrifying symbol of extreme human suffering, weakness, degradation and shame. Part II is devoted the study of Greco-Roman rhetoric, with special emphasis on the orator’s delivery as body language”. Paul’s intention invert the current social ethos was again clear when he deliberately chose to proclaim the gospel...not with eloquent wisdom (1 Cor. 1.17), and that he came Corinth in weakness and fear and much trembling (2.3). Part is a study of the peristasis catalogue (or the list of tribulations), especially its positive use by philosophers and moral teachers the Greco-Roman tradition, demonstrate manly virtues such as courage and endurance. However, this was only one side of the coin. The other side of the coin showed that the peristasis catalogue, especially through the body language it contained, could also signify shame, humiliation, and human degradation rather than manly virtues. thesis takes the view that it was this negative side that Paul had mind when he provided lists of his own suffering. In the end, the crucifixion of Christ, Paul’s unconventional manner of proclamation and his view on peristasis, all combined turn the current Greco-Roman social ethos up-side-down. And body language has provided the vital link between the three: crucifixion, rhetoric and peristasis." @default.
