Insights into how Paul conceptualised a Hebrew deity in relation to Jesus: the author accesses Paul’s conceptual processes by focusing on the explicit Kyrios and Theos citations in his authentic letters; explicit citations allow access to the textual-conceptual world represented by Hebrew and Greek manuscripts between 300 BCE and 200 CE.
In this study, Peter Nagel provides a deeper understanding of Paul’s concept of a Hebrew deity by offering a textual-conceptual and linguistic connection between the Hebrew deity of the Old Testament and Jesus as the Christ of the New Testament. He does so by offering a textual-cognitive analysis of the explicit Kyrios and Theos citations within their literary context in the Pauline literature. He also considers the text-critical variants, alternatives, and discrepancies in the entire New Testament where the term Kyrios and Theos are used. This analysis is done against a broad Hebrew and Greek textual-conceptual backdrop by investigating the most prominent biblical Hebrew and Greek manuscript evidence from 300 BCE to 200 CE.
