    Abraham traditions in Middle Jewish literature : implications for the interpretation of Galatians and Romans.

    No full text
    In 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
