Description
In the context of growing inequality in the twenty-first century, That There May Be Equality seeks to give new audibility to Paul's appeal to the principle of "equality" in the collection for the poor. L.L. Welborn traces the history of the concept of "equality" in Greek history in order to convey the potency of the idea which Paul invokes. He analyzes the structural inequality of the Roman economy, particularly that of Roman Corinth, and traces the emergence of Paul's concern about inequality in the ekklēsia of Christ believers at Corinth. Welborn then analyzes Paul's invocation of the principle of "equality" in his appeal for partnership in the collection for the poor in 2 Corinthians 8 and 9, bringing Paul's appeal to "equality" into the present-day crisis of global inequality.
