The Gospel as the Revelation of God's Righteousness

Paul's use of Isaiah in Romans 1:1-3:26

  • 1 Want to read

Paul's primary scriptural source in Romans 1-4 (and the epistle as a whole) is the prophecy of Isaiah and its redemptive narrative centering in the "proclamation of good news". Paul understands the content of this good news to be the revelation of God's righteousness in the sacrificial death of the messiah. It is the source of redemption from the power of sin and death and the basis of the everlasting (new) covenant, and hence that which effects redemptive recreation. Robert C. Olson explains how the expansive sweep of this redemptive narrative in Isaiah stretches from its allusions to the fall, to the overthrow of death and the creation of the new heavens and new earth, as Israel and the nations are at last ushered back into the presence of the glory of God. This Isaianic redemptive narrative, therefore, through Paul's extensive citational and allusive reference to the prophecy, forms the principle scriptural and theological framework for the epistle. - Publisher.

Veröffentlicht auf Englisch. Paulus' primäre Schriftquelle in Römer 1-4 (und im gesamten Römerbrief) ist die Prophetie Jesajas und dessen Heilserzählung, die sich um die »Verkündigung der frohen Botschaft« dreht. Paulus deutet den Inhalt dieser frohen Botschaft als die Offenbarung von Gottes Gerechtigkeit durch den Sühnetod des Messias. Er ist die Quelle der Erlösung von Sünde und Tod und die Grundlage eines ewigen (neuen) Bundes und dadurch das, was die erlösende Neuschöpfung beeinflusst. Robert C. Olson erklärt, wie die weitreichende Bedeutung dieser Heilserzählung in Jesaja zur Überwindung des Todes sowie der Schöpfung eines neuen Himmels und einer neuen Erde führt, in dem Israel und die Völker in die Gegenwart der Herrlichkeit Gottes zurück geführt werden. Diese jesajanische Heilserzählung bildet also durch Paulus' umfassende zitathafte und indirekte Bezugnahme auf die Prophetie den grundlegenden biblischen und theologischen Rahmen der Briefe. - Verlag.
