Abstract

Abstract The meaning of the phrase τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου in Gal 4,3 has been debated for nearly two millenia. A new understanding of Paul’s utilization of the term τοῦ κόσμου is considered in this essay. In addition to ὁ κόσμος meaning “the world” in Gal 4,3, an argument can be made that ὁ κόσμος is a reference to the “adornment” of the penis (i. e., the foreskin). The lexicographical evidence supports this reading. In other words, the reference to κόσμος in Gal 4,3 is an additional critique of the Galatians’ decision to circumcise the male members of their communities.

το στοιχε ι α το ο κόσμου再一次:解释Gal 4、3、9中的宇宙为包皮

摘要:关于gal4,3中το στοιχε ι α το ο κόσμου的含义，人们争论了近两千年。本文对保罗使用το ο κ ο σμου一词进行了新的理解。除了在加拉太书4,3中“ς κόσμος”意为“世界”之外，还可以提出一个论点，即ς κόσμος指的是阴茎的“装饰”。包皮)。词典编纂证据支持这种解读。换句话说，加拉太书4,3中提到的κ ο σμος是对加拉太人决定为他们社区的男性成员行割礼的另一种批评。
