The Body Of His Glory Resurrection Imagery In Philippians 3:20–21, Brian Schmisek
The Body Of His Glory Resurrection Imagery In Philippians 3:20–21, Brian Schmisek
Brian Schmisek
In the entire Pauline corpus, the term “body” is used with respect to resurrection in only two verses: 1 Corinthians 15:44 and Philippians 3:20–21. In neither case does it mean resuscitated flesh. In Philippians, Paul modifies the term body by “glory,” which he uses to express the radiant presence of God, in which Christ now and ultimately in which all believers will share. This article will attempt to show that for Paul the Risen Christ's “body of glory” is a term that indicates Christ's presence with God, rather than a descriptive phrase about properties of the resurrected body. The article …

In doing so, it is argued that the best framework through which to view Paul's discussion of election is through a primarily corporate model of election. While such a model is rooted in Judaism, Paul departs from his Jewish contemporaries in arguing that the locus of election is in God's Messiah, Jesus.

Paul & Judaism Revisited: A Study Of Divine And Human Agency In Salvation, Preston M. Sprinkle : Book Review, A. Thornhill
A. Chadwick Thornhill
The working of the puzzle of Paul and his relationship to Judaism seems a never ending task in the field of biblical studies. Across the spectrum, various Old, New, and Post-New Perspectives have been advocated. With a new contribution to the discussion, Preston Sprinkle's Paul & Judaism Revisited seeks to add some clarity to the picture by focusing specifically on the issue of divine and human agency in salvation. Sprinkle acknowledges that his contribution adds to the body of literature on the topic begun by E. P. Sanders and contributed to by scholars such as Krister Stendahl, Ernst Käsemann, James …
