Paul and the Resurrected Body: Social Identity and Ethical Practice

Matt O'Reilly, "Paul and the Resurrected Body: Social Identity and Ethical Practice "
English | ISBN: 0884144410 | 2020 | 298 pages | PDF | 2 MB

A new reading of Pauline theology, ethics, and eschatology grounded in social-identity theory and sociorhetorical criticism
Readers often think of Paul's attitude toward the resurrection of the body in individual terms: a single body raised as the climax of an individual's salvation. In Paul and the Resurrected Body: Social Identity and Ethical Practice, Matt O'Reilly makes the case that, for Paul, the social dimension of future bodily resurrection is just as important, if not more so. Through a close reading of key texts in the letters to the Corinthians, Romans, and Philippians, O'Reilly argues that resurrection is integral to Paul's understanding of Christian social identity. In Paul's theological reasoning, a believer's hope for the future depends on being identified as part of the people of God who will be resurrected.
