Susan Eastman, Christian Experience and Paul’s Logic of Solidarity: the Spiral Structure of Romans 5–8

https://czasopisma.kul.pl/index.php/ba/article/view/13513

Taking Romans 5:1–5 as a blueprint for a trajectory of hope in chapters 5–8, Ihe essay discusses three textual “detours” where Paul interrupts that trajectory: a rhetorical performance of life under sin (7:7–25), a depiction of union with all creation in suffering and hope (8:18–27), and a cry of lament (8:26). These rhetorical interruptions evoke Christian experience in solidarity with all creation - a solidarity that in turn displays Christ’s redemptive participation in the depths of all human dereliction, and thereby evokes hope.

This undergirds a pro­found analysis of the human condition as well as its remedy in God’s true word.

We Have Been Visited : Divine Encounter through the Lukan Benedictus (Luke 1:68–79) Recent discussions of the Benedictus have focused on its function in Luke- Acts.
