Ephesians: Empowerment to Walk in Love for the Unity of all in Christ
This
book analyzes Paul's Letter to the Ephesians and demonstrates that the
Letter's implied audience heard its individual units as a rich and
complex pattern of chiastic structures. It shows that, not only is the
entire Letter arranged in fifteen units that function as a comprehensive
chiastic structure, but that each of these fifteen units in turn
exhibits its own chiastic structure. By attending carefully to the
structure and rhetoric of Ephesians, this work demonstrates how the
implied audience is persuaded and empowered by the progression of the
Letter to “walk in love” and so contribute to the cosmic unity of all
things in Christ.
