Introduction
Introduction The Old Latin Tradition of the Pauline Epistles The evidence for the early Latin text of the Pauline Epistles is relatively sparse. Its history is similar to that of the rest of the Latin New Testament.1 An initial translation was probably made around the beginning of the third century, as witnessed by the consistent form of text in the biblical quotations of Cyprian. This was then revised in various ways in various places, sometimes with ref- erence to a Greek text, sometimes based on internal criteria of Latin style. Although this may have resulted in a number of different traditions, over the course of the fourth century a single form of text associated with North Italy gradually achieved an ascendancy. A revision of this version at the beginning of the fifth century produced the form of text later accepted as standard in the LatinVulgate.2 It is therefore misleading to divide the Latin tradition of the New Testament into two separate forms, Old Latin and Vulgate. The Vulgate was a revision of an existing Latin text according to a Greek form: the Gospels were the work of Jerome in 382–384, but the reviser of the rest of the New Testa- ment is unknown. There may have been multiple early Latin translations, but the conclusion of editors of both Old and New Testament books in the Vetus Latina editions is that the surviving evidence appears to derive from a single initial version. Although the Latin tradition is best conceived of as a contin- uum, it is nevertheless a useful shorthand to use Old Latin (or Vetus Latina) as a catch-all designation for non-Vulgate readings, particularly those which are attested in Christian writings before the fifth century.

Paul's Use of the Septuagint in Romans 9-11
PAUL’S USE OF THE SEPTUAGINT IN ROMANS 9-11 Timo Laato Master’s Thesis Greek Philology School of Languages and Translation Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Turku November 2018 The originality of this thesis has been checked in accordance with the University of Turku quality assurance system using the Turnitin OriginalityCheck service. UNIVERSITY OF TURKU School of Languages and Translation Studies Faculty of Humanities TIMO LAATO: Paul’s Use of the Septuagint in Romans 9-11 Master’s Thesis, 84 pages Greek Philology November 2018 The undertaking of the present study is to examine Paul’s use of the Septuagint in Rom. 9-11, especially the guidelines which affect his interpretation of the Old Testament. At the outset, an overview of the content of his Epistle to the Romans is provided. Next, some relevant aspects of Paul’s general way of interpreting the Old Testament are presented and expanded. He repeatedly employs the “promise – fulfillment” scheme in his attempt to define more in-depth the relationship be- tween the Old and New Testament. Further, he often draws on typological Bible exposition, rendering the Old Testament accounts and events as a paradigm for the New Testament time span. The Pauline manner of interpreting the Old Testament achieves more precision and accuracy through a comprehensive exegesis of Rom. 9-11 which particularly relate to Israel and their Holy Scriptures. Here all Old Testament quotations (and many Old Testament allusions) are examined one by one. Where appropriate, the original context of the quotations is also observed. Paul cites recurrently, but not always the Septuagint (or possibly another Greek translation).

Pauline Epistles Notes
Pauline Epistles Notes • Date: The life of Paul. He was born in 5 A.D. and died in 67 A.D. Although there are some discrepancies most of the commentaries agree that 1 Thessalonians was the first Epistle written, 52 A.D. and 2 Timothy was the last Epistle written, 67 A.D. A young man named Saul was bent on murdering all the Christians he could. He was a Jew, a Pharisee (well- versed in the Law of Moses), a man of knowledge, letters, and spirit. Then Jesus directly intervened. The risen savior appeared to Saul on the road to Damascus- an encounter that completely transformed him. This man Saul became the beloved apostle, saint, evangelist, theologian, and pastor we call Paul. Paul’s an important character: out of the 27 books in the New Testament, Paul wrote 13. Out of all the biblical human authors, Paul has written the most books of the Bible. Paul was chosen for a few specific tasks (Ephesians 3:8- 9): • Preach Christ to the Gentiles. • Convey God’s plan for managing the church. We see Paul doing the first in the book of Acts. We see him doing the second in his letters. Most of Paul’s letters fall into two groups: letters to the churches and letters to pastors.

THE IMPORTANCE of the SEPTUAGINT for BIBLICAL STUDIES (Part I)
Bibliotheca Sacra 112 (Oct. 1955) 344-55. Copyright © 1955 by Dallas Theological Seminary. Cited with permission. Department of New Testament Greek and Literature THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SEPTUAGINT FOR BIBLICAL STUDIES (Part I) BY EVERETT F. HARRISON, TH.D., PH.D. EDITOR'S NOTE : Dr. Harrison is Professor of New Testament at Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California and an outstanding evangelical New Testament scholar. In these days when the study of Greek as an element in ministerial training is being viewed with waning enthusiasm in many quarters, being reduced from a required to an elec- tive status in institution after institution, some courage is required to maintain that the scope of Greek studies not only should be retained but broadened. Yet this is our conviction. How many seminary graduates of our era have made the acquaintance with the Greek Fathers through the original texts? Fortunately this deficiency is compensated for to some degree where there are courses in early church history which go into the source materials. But in the case of the Septuagint nothing in the curriculum helps to overcome the lack of familiarity with the Old Testament in Greek. FIRST TRANSLATION OF OLD TESTAMENT What Deissmann wrote years ago is worthy of repetition today. "The daughter belongs of right to the mother; the Greek Old and New Testaments form by their contents and by their fortunes an inseparable unity. The oldest manuscript Bibles that we possess are complete Bibles in Greek. But what history has joined together, doctrine has put asunder; the Greek Bible has been torn in halves.

Paul's Theology of Evangelism: Gospel-Proclaimers and Gospel
Paul’s Theology of Evangelism: Gospel-Proclaimers and Gospel-Promoters Today Jason Piland NT512 – Pauline Epistles, Spring 2018, Dr. Cara Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte April 27, 2018 Paul is Christianity’s missionary par excellence. Upon his dramatic conversion, he was commissioned by God to be “a chosen instrument . to carry [God’s] name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel” (Acts 9:15). Paul had great zeal for this task, and he extensively engaged in all kinds of evangelistic endeavors: in synagogues, with individuals, in public halls, in homes, and through letters. God blessed his ministry, and Paul planted churches and tended to new flocks all across the Greek and Roman world of the first century. His example in Acts and deposit of teaching in his epistles remain for Christians and are a large piece of the apostolic foundation that continue to encourage and instruct Christians today. Some contemporary Evangelicals use Paul as an example for missions and evangelism that all Christians should follow.1 It only makes sense that contemporary Evangelicals, who place a premium on conversions and evangelism that leads thereto, would do this.2 But our relationship to Paul, as an apostle given an extraordinary call in the foundational stage of the new covenant church’s existence, is more complex than that. We cannot simply place the demand on each and every Christian that they are to be evangelists and church planters in the same way Paul was. A close evaluation of Paul’s teaching is necessary to understand his view of the “ordinary” Christian’s relationship to evangelism.

Healing in the Pauline Epistles: Why the Silence?
JETS 56/3 (2013) 557–75 HEALING IN THE PAULINE EPISTLES: WHY THE SILENCE? ELIEZER GONZALEZ* I. INTRODUCTION It is significant that in Frederick Gaiser’s Healing in the Bible, healing in the Pauline churches receives only the briefest of mentions.1 GiVen PaUl’s own relatiVe silence on this matter, this is perhaps understandable. However, according to Luke’s representation of earliest Christianity in the Acts of the Apostles, after the person of Jesus Christ, Paul of Tarsus was the most prominent healer and miracle- worker in the NT.2 This apparent discrepancy has been highlighted by many schol- ars as one of the key indicators of the distance in both historical time and reliability between Paul and the author of Acts.3 Although the general question of how Paul is depicted in Acts, as opposed to in his own epistles, has been the subject of extensive scholarly debate, this essay will more specifically examine Paul’s healings in both sources. This will be done within the contexts of Paul’s literary purposes, his pneumatology and ecclesiology, and his own self-understanding as an apostle. Paul’s relative silence regarding his own healings may thereby be understood withoUt haVinG to assUme a second- century date for Acts, or impugning LUke’s credentials as a historian. * Eliezer Gonzalez is affiliated with MacqUarie UniVersity, Sydney and can be contacted at P.O.

The Pauline Epistles Paul S. Jeon, Ph.D. | [email protected] February 5 – May 28 | Times Vary “And count the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given him, as he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures.”1 “I have lived with St Paul as a more or less constant companion for more than twenty years. I still have the sense of being only half-way up the mountain, of there being yet more to explore, more vistas to glimpse. Always I am aware that I myself have a good deal more climbing yet to do.”2 COURSE PURPOSE 1. To develop a working knowledge of Paul and his letters 2.
