Persuading Shipwrecked Men

The Rhetorical Strategies of 1 Timothy 1

Produktform: Buch / Einband - flex.(Paperback)

The plain-spoken rhetorical style of 1 Timothy belies a tension that simmers beneath the surface of the letter. This tension had already erupted in the removal of Hymenaeus and Alexander. Those who are addressed in the letter are warned that they may be heading toward the same catastrophic failure, shipwrecking their faith. This, according to Lyn M.
