Gospels of Thomas and Philip and Truth - Syriac Christian Church

fitting teacher for flesh and blood. Rather than supersession in the explicitly temporal
sense within which Paul inscribes it, John's typology of Torah and Logos Incarnate is
more easily read within the context of ... a prevailing assumption of Western thought,
that oral teaching is more authentic and transparent than written texts.
Mark D. Given, ‘The True Rhetoric of Romans’ (paper, Society of Biblical
Literature annual meetings, 2001): Concerning the sophistic obscurity of Paul's
argumentative strategies in Romans,... it is sometimes so hard to tell just what Paul
really intends to say about such controversial subjects as the [Mosaic] Law,
Judaism, and the Jewish people that one might ... suggest that the ambiguities are
intended to keep the audience guessing what Paul really thinks.
Tom Powers, The Call of God: Women Doing Theology in Peru (2003): Women
are confronted with such biblical passages as 1 Cor. 14:34 ... and 1 Tim. 2:11-14....
However, women's voices will never be muted again.
Ioannis Zizioulas (Orthodox Archbishop of Pergamum, President of the
Combined International Commission for Theological Dialogue between Catholics
and Orthodox), L’Osservatore Romano (7 July 2006): St Peter and St Paul could
have differing points of view about certain questions,… as is evident in the Biblical
account of their lives.
Hershel Shanks, The Dead Sea Scrolls—What They Really Say (Biblical
Archaeology Society ebook, 2007): Paul ... knows nothing of the virgin birth. In Paul,
Jesus becomes the son of God at his resurrection. Read Paul’s letter to the
Romans, where Jesus was ‘declared to be the son of God with power, according to
the spirit of holiness, by his resurrection from the dead’ (Romans 1:3-4).
