摘要
保罗在加拉太书中论证的结构、流程和逻辑仍然是一个争论的主题,因为学者们试图在一个既欣赏一世纪犹太教的多样性,又欣赏保罗对自己犹太遗产的挪用的框架内,解读保罗关于律法、律法的行为和犹太教的其他方面的陈述。学者们也试图根据一世纪希腊罗马人的修辞策略和惯例来解读保罗给加拉太人的信。本文通过从一个尚未被考虑的角度来看待加拉太书,为这些讨论做出了贡献:公元一世纪关于引入和反驳法律(ν ο μου ε ι σφορά)的pro体操练习。这个特定的作文练习借鉴了之前练习中掌握的技巧,学生们利用作文和修辞技巧来说服读者(一个假想的观众)制定或放弃基于合法性、可能性、优势和适当性的特定法律。通过这个特殊的练习来阅读加拉太书,我们可以欣赏到保罗在多大程度上使用了传统的辩论形式来讨论现行律法的应用。这种阅读有助于更深入地描述保罗对古代修辞元素的使用。
Galatians and the Progymnasmata on Refuting a Law: A Neglected Aspect of Pauline Rhetoric
The structure, flow, and logic of Paul's argumentation in Galatians continues to be a subject of debate as scholars seek to read Paul's statements about the law, works of the law, and other aspects of Judaism within a framework that appreciates both the diverse nature of first-century Judaism and Paul's appropriation of his own Jewish heritage. Scholars have also sought to read Paul's letter to the Galatians in light of first-century Greco-Roman rhetorical strategies and conventions. This essay contributes to these discussions by looking at Galatians from an angle that has not yet been considered: the first-century A.D. progymnasmata exercise on the introduction and refutation of a law (νόμου εἰσφορά). This specific compositional exercise drew on the skills mastered in earlier exercises as students utilized compositional and rhetorical skills to persuade the reader (an imaginary audience) to enact or abandon a particular law based on the topics of legality, possibility, advantage, and appropriateness. By reading Galatians through the lens of this particular exercise, it is possible to appreciate the extent to which Paul utilized conventional forms of argumentation about the application of existing laws. This sort of reading contributes to a thicker description of Paul's use of elements of ancient rhetoric.
