Pneuma and Logos
The role of the Holy Spirit in the writing of Scripture and the role of the Holy Spirit in the understanding of Scripture are corollary ideas. The first one of these--usually referred to as the Inspiration of Scripture--has been extensively discussed by the Early Church Fathers, theologians, and other Bible scholars from the earliest centuries of the Church until the present. Likewise, the second of these corollary ideas--the role of the Holy Spirit in the understanding of Scripture--has been widely considered from the time of the Early Church Fathers. However, this idea, usually referred to as the Illumination of Scripture, has not been as extensively discussed as the corollary doctrine of ...

More than Conquerors: The Pauline Mysticism of Romans 8
MORE THAN Conquerors is a contemplative meditation on the 8th chapter of St. Paul's Letter to the Romans. Modeled on the lectio divina style of Adrienne von Speyr and Erasmo Leiva-Merikakas, this book explores the mystical depths of St. Paul's most famous letter, inviting us to reflect on the deifying power of 'life in Christ.' St. Paul was the first and perhaps greatest Christian mystic. The complexities of his letters to the Romans bear witness to the unfathomable riches of the Mystery of Christ. These reflections seek to bring us into the heart of Pauline mysticism.
The Departure of an Apostle
What was Paul's attitude toward his own death? How did he act and what did he say and write in view of it? What hopes did he hold for himself beyond death? Alexander N. Kirk explores these questions through a close reading of four Pauline letters that look ahead to Paul's death and other relevant texts in the first two generations after Paul's death (AD 70-160). The author studies portraits of the departed Paul in Acts, 1 Clement, the letters of Ignatius, Polycarp's letter To the Philippians, and the Martyrdom of Paul. He also examines portraits of the departing Paul in 1 and 2 Corinthians, Philippians, and 2 Timothy, arguing that Paul's death did not primarily present an existential challenge, but a pastoral one. Although touching upon several areas of recent scholarly interest, Alexander N. Kirk sets forth a new research question and fresh interpretations of early Christian and Pauline texts.
