In passing from the Galatian to the Ephesian epistle we are conscious of entering a different atmosphere. We leave the region of controversy for that of meditation. From the battle-field we step into the hush and stillness of the temple. Verses 314 of this chapter constitute the most sustained and perfect act of praise that is found in the apostles letters. It is as though a door were suddenly opened in heaven; it shuts behind us, and earthly tumult dies away. The contrast between these two writings, following each other in the established order of the epistles, is singular and in some ways extreme. They are, respectively, the most combative and peaceful, the most impassioned and unimpassioned, the most concrete and abstract, the most human and divine amongst the great apostles writings. Yet there is a fundamental resemblance and identity of character. The two letters are not the expression of different minds, but of different phases of the same mind. In the Paul of Galatians the Paul of Ephesians is latent; the contemplative thinker, the devout mystic behind the ardent missionary and the masterly debater. Those critics who recognize the genuine apostle only in the four previous epistles and reject whatever does not conform strictly to their type, do not perceive how much is needed to make up a man like the apostle Paul. Without the inwardness, the brooding faculty, the power of abstract and metaphysical thinking displayed in the epistles of this group, he could never have wrought out the system of doctrine contained in those earlier writings, nor grasped the principles which he there applies with such vigour and effect. That so many serious and able scholars doubt, or even deny, St Pauls authorship of this epistle on internal grounds and because of the contrast to which we have referred, is one of those phenomena which in future histories of religious thought will be quoted as the curiosities of a hypercritical age.2</p>...(*_*)9781465581273_<p>In passing from the Galatian to the Ephesian epistle we are conscious of entering a different atmosphere.

That so many serious and able scholars doubt, or even deny, St Pauls authorship of this epistle on internal grounds and because of the contrast to which we have referred, is one of those phenomena which in future histories of religious thought will be quoted as the curiosities of a hypercritical age. Let us observe some of the Pauline qualities that are stamped upon the face of this document. There is, in the first place, the apostles intellectual note, what has been well called his passion for the absolute. St Pauls was one of those minds, so discomposing to superficial and merely practical thinkers, which cannot be content with half-way conclusions. For every principle he seeks its ultimate basis; every line of thought he pushes to its furthest limits. His gospel, if he is to rest in it, must supply a principle of unity that will bind together all the elements of his mental world. Hence, in contesting the Jewish claim to religious superiority on the ground of circumcision and the Abrahamic covenant, St Paul developed in the epistle to the Galatians a religious philosophy of history; he arrived at a view of the function of the law in the education of mankind which disposed not only of the question at issue, but of all such questions. He established for ever the principle of salvation by faith and of spiritual sonship to God. What that former argument effects for the history of revelation, is done here for the gospel in its relations to society and universal life. The principle of Christs headship is carried to its largest results. The centre of the Church becomes the centre of the universe. Gods plan of the ages is disclosed, ranging through eternity and embracing every form of being, and gathering into one all things in the Christ. In Galatians and Romans the thought of salvation by Christ breaks through Jewish limits and spreads itself over the field of history; in Colossians and Ephesians the idea of life in Christ overleaps the barriers of time and human existence, and brings things in heaven and things in earth and things beneath the earth under its sway.</p>...9781465581273_Library of Alexandrialibro_electonico_0af92d88-3abb-3595-ad3c-ae348d3b53a8_9781465581273;9781465581273_9781465581273George GillandersInglésMéxico2025-07-08T00:00:00+00:002024-05-08T00:00:00+00:00https://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/markmoxford-epub-f808b3c0-20ac-4003-89e6-6b73a364015b.epubLibrary of Alexandria
