Sin, repentance, atonement and resurrection: the perspective of rabbinic theology on the views of James 1-2 and Paul in Romans 3-4
Paul finds his place on a continuum with the Temple and its rites of atonement, replacing the animal offerings with the sacrifice of Christ. The Rabbinic system and James's counterpart share a different world altogether - and a correspondingly other theory of atonement. From the matter of atone...

Summary: | Paul finds his place on a continuum with the Temple and its rites of atonement, replacing the animal offerings with the sacrifice of Christ. The Rabbinic system and James's counterpart share a different world altogether - and a correspondingly other theory of atonement. From the matter of atonement, all else flows, for and aft: the definition of sin, the place of repentance, on the fore-side, and judgment and triumph over death, on the aft-side. And to allude to the matter of the Messiah, for Paul, Christ, not a Messiah, forms the actor, and the action Is self-sacrifice on the Cross, yielding atonement for all humanity, here and now, which is the end-time. The Rabbinic system and its Christian counterpart in James's letter are so structured as to find such a formulation of matters unintelligible. |
