| Summary: | The ambivalence towards the Pauline documents and their legacy is probably nowhere as strong as in the interplay between morality, and the materiality-and corporeality in particular-of human existence. Paul is often quoted in the formulation of Christian thought and ethics, but his position on the human body, sexual ethics and gender politics is, as frequently, considered problematical. In the articulation of Pauline theology and ethics, the human body plays an important role, and constitutes an important reference point for morality as it emerges in the Pauline letters. Paul's body theology is explored within the broader socio-historical as well as reception-historical contexts, and the link between his body theology and Paul's moral stance is considered. |
