This study offers a fresh approach to reception historical studies
of New Testament texts, guided by a methodology introduced by
ancient historians who study Graeco-Roman educational texts. In the
course of six chapters, the author identifies and examines the most
representative Pauline texts within writings of the ante-Nicene
period: 1Cor 2, Eph 6, 1Cor 15, and Col 1. The identification of
these most widely cited Pauline texts, based on a comprehensive
database which serves as an appendix to this work, allows the study
to engage both in exegetical and historical approaches to each
pericope while at the same time drawing conclusions about the
theological tendencies and dominant themes reflected in each.
Engaging a wide range of primary texts, it demonstrates that just
as there is no singular way that each Pauline text was adapted and
used by early Christian writers, so there is no homogeneous view of
early Christian interpretation and the way Scripture informed their
writings, theology, and ultimately identity as Christian.
