Keys to First Corinthians: Revisiting the Major Issues
Jerome
Murphy-O'Connor's reputation as a recognized expert on the Corinthian
correspondence has been built on the original solutions he has offered
to perennial problems. Brought together for the first time in one
volume, each of the sixteen articles anthologised here deals with one or
more verses in 1 Corinthians that have baffled scholars for
generations. Throughout the collection the author dialogues with the
opinions of colleagues, responding to and building on their accurate
observations, and explaining in detail why certain solutions are viable
whilst others are implausible. A newly written 'reception history' has been appended to each article to bring the collection completely up to date. Although not a commentary on 1 Corinthians, this volume deals thoroughly with all the major problems of the most interesting of the Pauline letters.
