Has Kirk "unlocked Romans" for us? His fascinating study certainly gives us one useful and neglected key for unlocking many doors that line the Romans hallway. Yet to speak of resurrection as the hermeneutical key creates just the kind of overly controlling single lens Kirk eschews in past generations' readings of Romans through the single lens of justification by faith. Chock full of illuminating insights and well-argued exegetical proposals, Unlocking Romans ultimately fails to provide a cumulatively convincing alternative reading of Romans, pushing an otherwise helpful thesis too far and distorting several crucial elements of Paul's thought as a result.
If the God of Israel has acted to save his people through Christ, but Israel is not participating in that salvation, how then can this God be considered righteous? Unlocking Romans is directed in large extent toward answering this question in order to illuminate the righteousness of God as revealed in the book of Romans. The answer here, J. R. Daniel Kirk claims, comes mainly in terms of resurrection. Even if only the most obvious references in Romans are considered -- and Kirk certainly delves more deeply than that -- the theme of resurrection appears not only in every section of the letter but also at climactic moments of Paul's argument. The network of connections among Jesus' resurrection, Israel's Scriptures, and redefining the people of God serves to affirm God's fidelity to Israel. This, in turn, demonstrates Paul's gospel message to be a witness to the revelation of the righteousness of God. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
