Papyrologie und Exegese

Beschreibung

The documentary papyri bear most interesting witness to everyday life in antiquity. Thus they are highly valuable for the interpretation of the New Testament, particularly for understanding the everyday life of ordinary people. Thus this volume is an essential contribution to the interdisciplinary research on the New Testament in the light of the papyri.
The documentary papyri bear most interesting witness to everyday life in antiquity. Thus they are highly valuable for the interpretation of the New Testament, particularly for understanding the everyday life of ordinary people. The papyri vividly depict social relations, economic, medical and legal issues as well as very private problems and rather mundane concerns. Moreover, they also allow a deeper comprehension of metaphorical language and its meaning with regard to theological arguments in the New Testament. The articles in this volume shed light on these manifold issues from the perspective of both Papyrology and New Testament studies, and discuss the relationship between them. The fact that the New Testament writings were also produced and transmitted on papyrus underlines the affinity of both areas of research. Thus the volume is an essential contribution to the interdisciplinary research on the New Testament in the light of the papyri.
