Having presented a brief history of research on 2 Corinthians,
Eve-Marie Becker outlines the process of Paul's communication with
the Corinthian community and considers letter-production and
letter-reception at the time. She develops a "literary-historical"
model for reconstructing the original separate letters (1.1-7.4;
7.5-16; 8--9; 10--13) which were later compiled to form the
canonical letter. She defines - by means of linguistics and
communication theory - the central theoretical elements for Pauline
letter-hermeneutics. There is a thorough exegesis of those parts of
2 Corinthians in which Paul formulates aspects of his hermeneutics,
based on the theory of letter-hermeneutics and on the results of
the "literary-historical" reconstruction of the original form of 2
Corinthians. There is also an examination of the reception and
interpretation of 2 Corinthians in the early church. This is volume
279 in the Journal for the Study of the New Testament Supplement
series.
