| Summary: | Paul utilises Roman, Greek and Jewish musical traditions to encourage the congregation in Rome to praise God in unison. Paul, furthermore, remarks on the musical instruments used, and hymns sung, in the Corinthian congregation. The Colossians and Ephesians are exhorted to sing in order to instruct and to admonish one another to glorify God. Three Christ-hymns are analysed: these hymns are teaching aids in the upbuilding of the church of Christ, expressing and driving home the theology of the congregation, pouring forth the believers's adoration, gratitude, faith, hope, love, joy, doubt and sorrow to God. |
