Abstract

Abstract Most scholars assume that 1 Timothy 3.16b is a hymn, or a fragment of a hymn, belonging to another context. However, Furley (1995) points out that even the ancients had difficulty categorising their poetic materials. 1 Timothy 3.16b has no metre and neither praises God nor asks him for benefits, which are the usual indicators of a hymn. This article argues that 1 Timothy 3.16b was written by the writer for insertion into the letter, and it was intended to be used in his congregation as a bulwark (1 Tim 3.15) against his opponents. 1 Timothy 3.16b more closely resembles an epigram, normally written to accompany an epiphany of a god.

提摩太前书3:16 b:以另一个名字命名“赞美诗”?

大多数学者认为提摩太前书3:16 b是一首赞美诗，或者是赞美诗的片段，属于另一种语境。然而，Furley(1995)指出，即使是古人也很难对诗歌材料进行分类。提摩太前书3:16 b没有韵律，既不赞美上帝，也不祈求上帝的好处，这是赞美诗通常的标志。这篇文章认为提摩太前书3:16 b是作者为了插入书信而写的，目的是在他的会众中作为对抗对手的堡垒(提摩太前书3:15)。提摩太前书3:16 b更像是警句，通常是为上帝的顿悟而写的。
