English summary: PAUL: Reinventing GodUndoubtedly the Apostle Paul
is one of the most interesting figures of the New Testament. His
letters provide impulses, open up new perspectives and bring up
questions which have not lost any of their actuality. On the
contrary - it is time to try anew to understand these texts. They
are unique witnesses of a thinking process in which the God of
Israel and of the entire world is comprehended in a new way through
the story of Jesus. This central volume of the well-known series
Biblical Figures contains information on the biography and the
self-image of the Apostle as well as a survey of his complex sphere
of activity; with the help of a number of selected texts it
provides reflective access to the author of these letters. As a
result, we realize the challenge posed today by Paul's way of
thinking, which was unique in its consistency and depth. German
text. German description: Unbestritten gehort der Apostel Paulus zu
den interessantesten Figuren des Neuen Testaments. Seine Briefe
geben Anstosse, eroffnen Perspektiven und werfen Fragen auf, die
nichts von ihrer Aktualitat eingebuesst haben. Im Gegenteil - es
gilt, diesen Texten neu auf die Spur zu kommen. Sie sind die
einzigartigen Zeugnisse eines Denkprozesses, in dem der Gott
Israels und aller Welt in der Geschichte Jesu Christi neu
verstanden wird.Dieser zentrale Band aus der bekannten Reihe
-Biblische Gestalten- enthalt Informationen zur Biographie und zum
Selbstverstandnis des Apostels sowie einen Abriss seiner kaum
ueberschaubaren Wirkungsgeschichte; er bietet an ausgewahlten
Texten einen Zugang zum Zentrum dieser Briefe. Dabei wird deutlich,
welche Herausforderung das in seiner Konsequenz und Tiefe
beispiellose Denken des Paulus heute bedeutet.
