    Snatched into Paradise (2 Cor 12:1-10)

    Product Description

    In "2 Corinthians" 12:1-10, Paul claims to have been snatched into paradise but then tells how he received a 'thorn in the flesh'. Many recent scholars contend that Paul belittles ecstatic experiences such as the ascent to paradise. This monograph places "2 Corinthians" 12:1-10 in the contexts of ancient ascent traditions as well as other accounts of extraordinary religious experience in Paul's letters, and it engages premodern interpretation of the ascent. This study argues that for Paul, extraordinary experiences such as the ascent enable self-transcending love for God and neighbors.
