Ein achter Tag
The essay poses the question of the connection between talk about Jesus' resurrection and the biblical doctrine of God. Is there even a bridge from the early Christian confession of Jesus' resurrection to the later Trinitarian theology? The starting point is the early Christian metaphor of the »eighth day« as a symbol of Easter. The essay outlines the broad dimensions in which the New Testament statements about the resurrection of Jesus can be lo…
Are Christians a New »People«? Detecting Ethnicity and Cultural Friction in Paul's Letters and Early Christianity
Der Aufsatz fragt nach der Reichweite der Kategorie »Ethnicity«, zunächst in der Schrift »an Diognet«, wo die Christen als »drittes Volk« (tertium genus) gezeichnet werden. Der 1. Korintherbrief (bes. 1,18-25) und der Römerbrief zeigen, dass Paulus auf ethnische Kategorien zurückgreift, um christliche Identität zu beschreiben. Wichtiger als die Unterscheidung der Christen von Juden und Heiden bzw. Griechen ist aber ihre »theo-ethnische« Zeichnung…
Die historisch-kritische Methode - Erfolgsmodell mit Schattenseiten
The paper deals with a programmatic hermeneutical article by the Zurich theologian Gerhard Ebeling written in 1950 about the significance of the critical-historical method for church and theology in Protestantism. Entering a dialogue with Ebeling, a view is taken on some aspects of the relevance of historical criticism in recent exegesis.
Paulus in Zürich. Zur Briefauslegung von Heinrich Bullinger
Within the wide span of the Reformation's readings of scripture, the voice of Heinrich Bullinger († 1575), the successor of Ulrich Zwingli in reformed Zurich, deserves special attention. The article deals with his exegetical works, namely his interpretation of the Pauline epistles, and pays particular attention to certain passages in his exegesis of Galatians and Philippians. Bullinger is one of the predecessors of modern rhetorical criticism in …
Was ist wahre Freiheit?
Die Diatribe IV 1 peri eleutherias ist eine der dichtesten (und zugleich eine der längeren) Unterredungen Epiktets (um 100 n. Chr.), die uns der Historiker Arrian überliefert hat. Dieser exemplarische Text bündelt nicht nur viele zentrale Lehrthemen des Stoikers, sondern demonstriert auch markant seine psychagogische Kunst. Der Band enthält neben ausführlicher Einleitung, Text und Übersetzung sowie fortlaufendem Kommentar auch eine Reihe von Essa…
Mitten auf dem Areopag«. Überlegungen zu den Schnittstellen zwischen antiker Philosophie und Neuem Testament
In front of the Areopagus speech of Acts 17 this essay queries which historical and hermeneutical aspects are to be considered when one deals with the relationship of ancient philosophy and early Christian literature. With that, different perspectives must be joined: Both, Christian reception of philosophical contents and methods on one hand and approaches for an explicit dialogue respectively controversy on the other hand, can be drawn into the …
Hymnus, Enkomion oder Psalm? Schattengefechte in der neutestamentlichen Wissenschaft
For much of the twentieth century scholars tried to reconstruct various cultic hymns beneath the surface of NT texts. With the rise of rhetorical criticism the focus of research has shifted to the properties of epideictic rhetoric. Exegetes, therefore, often tend to contrast ‘encomia’ with ‘hymns’ or ‘psalms’. To avoid any shadow boxing one has to consider which descriptive language would fit best the texts. A brief examination of ancient hymnic …
Streit zwischen Schwestern? Zum Verhältnis von Exegese und Religionsgeschichte
This article deals with the complex relationship between New Testament exegesis, namely theological exegesis, and »Religionsgeschichte« (history of religions, religious studies). Although historical and theological perspectives differ in various respects, both are in need of a hermeneutical access in order to attain a deeper understanding of early Christianity and its texts.
Horizonte neutestamentlicher Christologie
Dieser Band enthält exegetische Aufsätze von Samuel Vollenweider aus den Jahren 1988 bis 2002, in denen er sich mit zwei Themenbereichen beschäftigt. Das Entstehen der neutestamentlichen Christologie wird in Studien über das Verhältnis von Monotheismus und Christologie, die frühjüdischen Weisheitskonzeptionen als Hintergrund der entstehenden Christologie, die Gottebenbildlichkeit Jesu Christi, den Sühnetod und die Auferstehung betrachtet. Zudem b…
Der ‘Raub’ Der Gottgleichheit
Phil 2.6b should not be understood in the manner of an idiom but in a clearly negative way (‘booty’). The central key to Phil 2.6b is offered by biblical, Jewish and Hellenistic traditions about a usurpation of equality with God by kings and rulers (cf. Isa 14.12–15; hubris of god-like kings like Alexander, who ‘robbed’ their position). The self-humiliating Christ (who did not claim equality with God) is conceived as an antitype to the self-eleva…
