The Practice of the Body of Christ: Human Agency in Pauline Theology after MacIntyre - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Practice of the Body of Christ' forges connections between two movements in today’s theological disciplines. The first is the so-called “apocalyptic” interpretation of Paul and the second is often called “virtue ethics.”
Colin Miller claims that a virtue ethic, or a classical account of human agency, has much to contribute to an apocalyptic reading of Paul’s letters, and finds in Romans a classical account of human action in many ways like the one philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre develops in his work, but not finally reducible to it.
Miller expounds a MacIntyrian virtue ethic through Paul via Romans that will be of interest to anyone involved in Pauline studies, philosophy of religion or theology.
