Abstract Paul’s ἐν Χριστῷ phrases have long caused much investigation among scholars, yet no consensus has been reached as to what they mean and how the apostle came to speak of the relationship between believers and Christ in this way. This brief survey shows that the philological background of Paul’s “being in Christ” phrases lies in the largely analogous Greek phrase ἔν τινι εἶναι which expresses dependency of something or someone on something or someone else. Various passages from the archaic up until the imperial period that have received no attention so far demonstrate this. In Paul, the concept of dependency in connection with ἐν Χριστῷ phrases particularly comes to play in Rom 1–8.

Abstract Almost all current translations of 2Tim 1:7 understand σωφρονισμός in this verse as a synonym of σωφροσύνη. So do authoritative recent commentaries and dictionaries. This paper demonstrates that word formation makes this unlikely and that σωφρονισμός is never used synonymously with σωφροσύνη in ancient Greek literature. It is shown that the usual meaning of “making someone σώφρων” is possible and appropriate for 2Tim 1:7. A survey of ancient translations and interpretations of the verse by ancient Christian writers shows that most of them also consider this meaning possible and obvious.

Abstract The essay aims to show the structure and inner coherence of 2 Corinthians 8–9 by analyzing two features of the text that hold it intimately together: 1) Paul’s use of chronological narration in 8,1–7, 8,16–24, and 9,1–5 and 2) his focus on rhetorical ‘you concern’ (in a manner that is explained) in 8,9–15 and 9,6–15. In the latter context, it is argued against previous scholarship that Paul’s rhetorical concern differs quite strongly in 8,9–15 and 9,6–15. Throughout, it is argued that chapters 8–9 play an important role as part of Paul’s overall aim in the letter as a whole: to prepare for his own forthcoming visit to Corinth.

Abstract The text of Luke 11:41 seems to indicate a Halakhic rule according to which alms-giving causes purity. There is no textual evidence for such a rule in known Jewish traditions. An alternative translation is possible which helps us better understand Luke 11:41 within Jewish tradition.

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.
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。

Abstract This article examines an aspect of Matthew’s unique reference to Bathsheba that is often neglected in discussions of the women in the genealogy, namely the position of this genealogical annotation within the three-part generational structure of Matthew’s genealogy (Matt 1,17). It will be argued that consideration of the structural position of this annotation points to its intentional multivalence. Matthew refers to Bathsheba as “she of Uriah” to create conceptual and structural connections with multiple components of Jesus’s genealogy. To develop this thesis, the article discusses the integrated narrative function of Matthew’s genealogical annotations, examines the distinct structural position of “she of Uriah” within the genealogy, and demonstrates how its multivalence sharpens contemporary readings of the women in Matthew’s genealogy.

Zusammenfassung Nicht nur bei zahlreichen griechisch-römischen Autoren der Antike, sondern auch in jüngsten Publikationen findet sich die Annahme, dass die Ablehnung jeder Form von Tischgemeinschaft mit Nichtjuden ein weit verbreitetes und weitgehend einheitliches Merkmal jüdischer Frömmigkeit im Judentum zur Zeit des Zweiten Tempels war. Demgegenüber wird hier anhand einer exemplarischen Untersuchung des Buches Judith und der Erzählung von Josef und Asenet argumentiert, dass das antike Judentum von komplexen und teilweise widersprüchlichen Diskursen zu diesem Thema geprägt war. Verschiedene Formen der Essens- oder Tischgemeinschaft zwischen Juden und Nichtjuden konnten als legitim angesehen werden, solange bestimmte Bedingungen erfüllt waren.
