Abraham traditions in Middle Jewish literature : implications for the interpretation of Galatians and Romans.
No full textIn the first three sections of the thesis it is shown how the figure of Abraham
functioned in different types of Middle Jewish works. In several different contexts,
Abraham functioned as the ideal Jew. The most popular traditions were that Abraham
was the first monotheist and anti-idolater, he was obedient to the Mosaic law, and he
was hospitable.
In Galatians Paul employed the first two Jewish traditions of Abraham in the
context of early Christianity to define those who are now members of the people of God.
Paul argued forcefully that obedience to law was inferior to being "in Christ" (Gal 3:10-
12, 17, 19, 23-26) because his Jewish Christian opponents were employing the figure of
Abraham who was obedient to the Mosaic law to persuade Gentile Christian converts to
adhere to the law. The figure of Abraham as the first anti-idolater and monotheist
further informed the interpretation of Galatians. Obedience to the law was tantamount
to idolatry (Gal 4:1-11). All those who were true children of Abraham should shun the
law, just as Abraham was known to have shunned idolatry.
In Romans, Paul played upon the tradition which connected Abraham with the
Mosaic law (Rom 4:3). He redefined the faith of Abraham as the faith in the one God
who gave life to the dead and who called into being the things that do not exist (Rom
4:17). He explained that the faith of Abraham in the God who gave life to the dead is
the same as faith in the God who resurrected Jesus Christ from the dead for the
forgiveness of sin (Rom 4:23-25). Paul reshaped the tradition of the monotheistic belief
of Abraham into faith in the God of Christ. Through this analysis the thesis attempts to demonstrate the fruitfulness of setting
Paul's discussion of Abraham in the context of Middle Jewish traditions about Abraham
which have first been viewed in their own right and not simply subsumed under the
categories of Paul's own gospel

Was Adam a Monotheist? A Reflection on Why We Call Abraham Father and Not Adam
No full textThe three great monotheistic religious traditions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) all claim Abraham as father and prototypical monotheist. Though Adam is the putative first father in all of these traditions, he is seldom remembered in Judeo-Christian scriptural, apocryphal, or pseudepigraphic texts as an exemplary monotheist. This essay briefly reviews why Abraham retains the lofty title “Father of Monotheism” while exploring how Latter-day restoration scripture adds to and challenges this ancient tradition vis-à-vis enhanced understanding of Adam’s covenantal and monotheistic fidelity to God
