Paul's Political Strategy in 1 Corinthians 1–4 - Bradley J. Bitner - Bog

Drawing extensively on epigraphical and papyrological evidence, this volume interprets 1 Corinthians 1-4 within the first-century politics of thanksgiving and of construction. Bradley J. Bitner demonstrates that Paul's response incorporated both Corinth's constitution and Jewish-biblical notions of covenant, ultimately redirecting gratitude and glory to God in Christ.
