Product Description

▼▲

With keen sensitivity, Marion L. Soards helps readers span the gap between one of the earliest Christian communities--with its concerns over Wisdom, in-groups and out-groups, manifestations of the Holy Spirit, Christian behavior, and the resurrection of Christ--and the Christian of today. He presents Paul's apocalyptic=eschatological outlook as perhaps a key to unlocking some of the more knotty passages in 1 Corinthians and helps readers realize the nature of that radical theological worldview.
