Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Commentary on St. Paul´s Epistles to the Corinthians The aim and method of the present volume are similar to those pursued in my Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans. I have endeavoured, by careful grammatical study of St. Paul´s words, to trace the line of thought they were designed to convey; and to look, through his actual thoughts while writing, into his abiding conception of the Gospel and of Christ. The various elements of this conception, thus obtained, I have arranged in order along the course of my exposition; and have compared them, in the concluding dissertations, with the results gained in my volume on Romans. This orderly arrangement and comparison of the practical results of exposition give to this commentary a claim to be, like its predecessor, a contribution to Systematic Theology. And I hold firmly that the method here adopted is the only safe pathway to a correct and comprehensive and connected view of the truths which, through the lips of Christ and through the intelligence and the pen of His Apostles, God has made known to men. The peculiar subject-matter of the Epistles to the Corinthians makes them to be also a record of St. Paul´s movements, a reflection of his surroundings, and a revelation of his inmost spiritual life. All these, St. Paul´s movements, surroundings, and spiritual life, I have with the utmost care tried to reproduce and combine, in order thus to obtain a view, as full and correct as possible, of the great Apostle and of an apostolic church. Consequently, the present volume claims to be also a contribution to the Biography of St. Paul and to the Early History of the Christian Church.
