2010 0-7734-3719-3
The study explores the verbal, thematic, and structural connectedness of 1 Corinthians 4 and 5 and proposes an apologetic and mimetic reading of the self-referential statements in chapter 5 against the backdrop of the imitation call in chapter 4. This work is a helpful guide to the what (content) and how (rhetoric) of Paul’s calls to imitation and exemplary self-referential statements in 1 Corinthians and resource on his self-understanding of his own authority.
