In Paul and Image, Philip Erwin challenges conventional
interpretations of 1 Corinthians that tend to overlook the
significance of ancient Roman visual culture in framing and posing
exegetical questions. He argues that in 1 Corinthians Paul engaged
in a long-standing philosophical discussion of visual
representation, with consequential implications for how he and his
Corinthian addressees interacted with the imagery around them. By
situating Paul's letter in the context of the critical discourse on
visual representation from Plato to Philo to the so-called Second
Sophistic, Erwin redefines Paul's critique of human wisdom,
treatment of idols, and resurrection discourse in visual terms.
