1 Corinthians

Autor David E. Garland
en Limba Engleză Hardback – noi 2003

Ne-a atras atenția, în primul rând, modul în care 1 Corinthians reușește să transforme problemele exegetice complexe în soluții practice pentru studiul biblic contemporan. David E. Garland propune o analiză riguroasă a celor 16 capitole ale epistolei pauline, punând accent pe studiile de caz extrase din contextul socio-istoric al Corintului antic. Suntem de părere că forța acestui volum rezidă în capacitatea de a ancora textul sacru în realitățile culturale elenistice, oferind cititorului instrumente concrete pentru a înțelege tensiunile dintr-o comunitate creștină timpurie. Spre deosebire de alte lucrări strict tehnice, acest volum din seria Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament menține un echilibru între analiza filologică a textului grecesc și relevanța sa pastorală. Putem afirma că lucrarea completează perspectiva oferită de The First Epistle to the Corinthians: A Commentary on the Greek Text de Anthony C. Thiselton, adăugând o accesibilitate sporită pentru cei care nu stăpânesc limbile biblice, fără a sacrifica însă profunzimea academică. Dacă Thiselton se concentrează pe o exegeză exhaustivă a limbajului, Garland prioritizează fluxul narativ și argumentativ al lui Pavel. În contextul operei sale, 1 Corinthians reprezintă o rafinare a expertizei demonstrate de David E. Garland în volume precum Matthew and Mark sau Luke. Dacă în lucrările sale anterioare din seria Expositor's Bible Commentary autorul a urmărit o sinteză succintă, aici beneficiază de spațiul necesar celor 870 de pagini pentru a explora în detaliu teme precum unitatea bisericii, etica sexuală și darurile spirituale. Este o contribuție majoră care consolidează poziția autorului ca unul dintre cei mai importanți comentatori evanghelici contemporani ai Noului Testament.

Descriere

Paul's first letter to the Corinthians is one of the most important epistles in the New Testament. David Garland's thoughtful new commentary draws on extensive research and engages the best of contemporary scholarship while providing a readable study that will be accessible to thoughtful readers as well as students, pastors, and scholars. After considering the context of the letter and the social and cultural setting of Corinth, Garland turns to his exegetical work. An introduction to each major unit of thought is followed by the author's own translation of the Greek text. In the course of his verse-by-verse commentary, he incorporates references to other ancient writings that help explain particular aspects of Paul's meaning or provide information on the social and cultural context. He also refers to the work of other commentators and provides extensive notes for further reading and research.

Christianity Today Book Award Winner

"A major achievement, Garland's commentary will take its place alongside other 'big' works on 1 Corinthians (notably those of Fee and Thiselton). The author displays an enviable grasp of the cultural challenges raised in the letter as well as an assured familiarity with biblical and Greco-Roman sources and the secondary authorities. At the same time his text is both readable and relevant. This is a further significant contribution to Corinthian studies."

"This commentary deserves commendation for treating 1 Corinthians in such a way as to make it accessible to pastors and others involved in studying this epistle. Garland avoids falling prey to cataloguing every minor exegetical issue and instead only addresses the main exegetical issues that add to an understanding of the epistle as a whole. This is a commentary that pastors and laity can turn to for years to come as a definitive source."
--Kate C. Donahoe, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
