Logos And Law In The Letter Of James : The Law Of Nature, The Law Of Moses, And The Law Of Freedom, Matt Jackson-Mccabe Oct 2012

Logos And Law In The Letter Of James : The Law Of Nature, The Law Of Moses, And The Law Of Freedom, Matt Jackson-Mccabe

Matt Jackson-McCabe

This study examines the association of "implanted logos" and the "perfect law of freedom" in the Letter of James.

Adaptations of the Stoic theory in ancient Jewish and Christian literature are examined, and the Letter of James is analyzed in detail. The work …

Matt Jackson-McCabe

A number of late Stoic sources describe either ethical concepts or a supposed universal belief in gods as being innate in the human animal. Though Chrysippus himself is known to have spoken of "implanted preconceptions" (ε¨μφυτοιπρολν´ψειζ) of good and bad, scholars have typically argued that the notion of innate concepts of any kind would have been entirely incompatible with his theory of knowledge. Both Epictetus' notion of innate concepts of good and bad and the references to an innate belief in gods by other philosophers of the Roman era are thus generally held to be later developments, probably owing to …
