      Paul and Isaiah's Servants

      Product Description

      "Paul and Isaiah's Servants" offers a fresh understanding of the ways in which Isaiah's canonical voice constrained and informed Paul's understanding of himself and Christ's unique identity. It argues that a theological approach to understanding Paul's appeal to and reading of the Old Testament, especially Isaiah, offers important insights into the ways in which Christians should read the Old Testament and a two-testament canon today. Gignilliat explores the ways in which Isaiah 40-66's canonical form presents the gospel in miniature with its movement from Israel to Servant to servants. He argues that Paul follows this literary movement in his own theological reflection in 2 Corinthians 5:14-6:10. The conclusion in the final chapters is that Paul is reading the Old Testament in such a way that the literal sense and its figural potential are not divorced but are actually organically linked in what can be termed a plain sense reading.
