Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Paul and His Epistles We have called this book Paul and His Epistles, but it might be Paul in His Epistles just as well, for the book aims to be not only an Introduction to the Pauline Epistles but also a Study of the Personality of the Apostle Paul as revealed in them. They are fragments of his life. They are all autobiographical in character. They ought not to be read as treatises in theology, for none of them was intended to be merely theological. They ought to be recognized as the products of personal experience. They ought not to be presented dry as dust and dead as a doornail. They are full of vitality. They were written to meet the real needs of real people, and they were written by a man who wore his heart on his sleeve and who never dictated a letter without putting himself wholly and unreservedly into it. We shall endeavor to make this apostle and the peoples to whom he ministered in these epistles live again in these pages, being assured that if we succeed in any measure, we only shall bring to light the life and immortality which has belonged to them by right from the beginning. We have read many works on Introduction whose principal business seemed to be that of dissection. They began with the treatment of the subject as though it were a corpse stretched at full length upon the laboratory table, and as they proceeded they gave the impression that the whole thing was becoming seven times as dead as before.
