Conflict and Community in Corinth: A Socio-Rhetorical Commentary on 1 and 2 Corinthians

This work brings together insights from a scholarly analysis of the language and the cultural images Paul used to so forcefully and effectively communicate with the church at Corinth – and by extension to readers through the ages. Pastors and seminarians will especially appreciate the very thoughtful sermon suggestions appearing in concluding paragraphs. The result is a clearer understanding of the challenge to weigh our beliefs and actions by God's standards rather than by worldly criteria.
