Discussion Forum 4: 1 Corinthians
Provide two examples of Paul's writing style from 1 Corinthians (try to find ones that others haven't used): 1) an example of Paul expressing emotion and state which emotion, and 2) an example of Paul using earthy language or a metaphor. For each, provide chapter and verse numbers and type out the full quote using the New Revised Standar Version (NRSV). The purpose of this assignment is to become more familiar with Paul's writing style (as well as the content of his letters) so that in a few weeks when we cover the Deutero-Paulinist letters, we will be able to analyze whether or not those letters are similar in writing style or dissimilar.pleas use the material provided the pdfs. and links are. attached
Examples:
1. Emotion: "What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each" (1 Cor 3.5). In the first part of the quote Paul expresses the emotion of frustration through the device of rhetorical questions.
2. Metaphor: "It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of a share in the crop" (1 Cor 9.10)
