The Pauline Idea of Faith in Its Relation to Jewish and Hellenistic Religion is a scholarly work by William Henry Paine Hatch that explores the concept of faith as presented by the Apostle Paul in his letters to various early Christian communities. Hatch examines how Paul's understanding of faith was shaped by his background in both Jewish and Hellenistic religious traditions, and how this understanding differed from contemporary ideas of faith in those traditions. The book also delves into Paul's teachings on salvation, grace, and the role of faith in the Christian life. Overall, The Pauline Idea of Faith in Its Relation to Jewish and Hellenistic Religion offers a thorough analysis of a central theme in the writings of one of Christianity's most influential figures.1917. Harvard Theological Studies II. From the preface: It is my purpose in the following pages to examine in detail the Pauline idea of faith, which was fundamental in the Apostle's conception of Christianity. What is the content of the idea in Paul? How is it related to trust in Jahveh, which was so prominent an element in Hebrew and Jewish piety? Was there anything analogous to the Pauline idea of faith in the religious thought of the Graeco-Roman world or in the Oriental mystery cults, which enjoyed great popularity in the West during the centuries immediately preceding and following the advent of Christianity? These are the questions which I shall endeavor to answer. Contents: Trust in Jahveh; The Pauline Idea of Faith; and Faith and the Religions of the Graeco-Roman World.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
