Does Paul's use of the phrase stoicheia tu kosmu in Gal. 4 necessarily refer to the physical elements of the ancient world? Challenging the current consensus attributed to Blinzler (1963: 429-43), Schweizer (1988: 455-68) and Rusam (1992: 119-25), this study analyses not only the limited corpus...

Descripción
Sumario:Does Paul's use of the phrase stoicheia tu kosmu in Gal. 4 necessarily refer to the physical elements of the ancient world? Challenging the current consensus attributed to Blinzler (1963: 429-43), Schweizer (1988: 455-68) and Rusam (1992: 119-25), this study analyses not only the limited corpus of texts on which their conclusions were based, but also a new corpus comprising every occurrence of stoicheion in the first centuries bce and ce. It concludes that the meaning of stoicheion is highly dependent on the literary context in which it is situated and that, in Galatians, stoicheia tu kosmu refers to the fundamental components of pre-Christian living.
