Paulus regnes ofte som den første teolog. Samtidig ser mange ham som en slags skurk som ødela Jesu gode budskap. De siste tiåra har mennesker langt utenfor kirke og religion fattet interesse for den store apostelen og nytestamentlige brevskriveren. Er han kanskje ikke skurk likevel? Og er det ok å lese Paulus helt ukristelig?Gjest i podkasten Dokka er Ole Jakob Løland, professor i KRLE ved Universitetet i Sørøst-Norge. Han er teolog og forfatter, og har blant annet skrevet boka En apostel for ateister. Paulus i moderne filosofi.

"In 1985, Krister Stendahl, then Lutheran Bishop of Stockholm, stepped to the microphone at a potentially volatile press conference in Stockholm, Sweden, and “offered support for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints building a temple there, against which there was growing opposition.” In that watershed moment, when many of his own countrymen and parishioners were angry at the prospect of an “American” church planting their temple on Swedish soil, the wise and gentle Stendahl stood alone and not only called for tolerance, but expressed his own respect for some aspects of Latter-day Saint doctrine and practice and further urged all to leave room for “holy envy” and the honoring of beautiful elements in faith traditions other than their own. "We concur with Stendahl, later Dean of Harvard Divinity School, that if we follow the better angels of our nature, we will seek ways to honor the best elements of other religions—indeed, that we will look with such depth and consideration that we will develop a little holy envy. We are also convinced that given the cultural climate in which we find ourselves in 2021, it has never been more important to seek to climb over what sociologist Arlie Hochschild (2016) has called “the empathy wall,” the wall that serves as a barrier to empathy for others." Loren Marks reads the article, "What is Holy Envy and Can It Heal Our World?" which was originally published in Public Square Magazine on December 3, 2021.
David, Matt, Brian, Brent, Austin, Tim, and Paul discuss the necessary shifts to see Ephesians as central to Paul's Gospel. The work of Douglas Campbell, Richard Hays, E. P. Sanders, Krister Stendahl, and Thomas Torrance, have to be considered in setting aside the reformed understanding of Paul focused on Romans and Galatians, so as to see Ephesians as key to Paul's understanding, captured in the notion of a participatory ontology.

"The term holy envy was developed by the late Krister Stendahl, who was Dean of the Harvard Divinity School and then Church of Sweden Bishop of Stockholm. This concept is core to the multi-faith research my colleagues and I do in the American Families of Faith project. "At the end of the semester, students write a paper on holy envy. This assignment asks students to “List and briefly discuss the 5 most important, personally meaningful, and/or helpful ideas you learned this semester about how those of other faiths practice their religion about which you felt some kind of holy envy.” "I would like to share what students in one class from one university learned about one idea: holy envy." David Dollahite reads the article, "Holy Envy: What We Learn By Studying Other Faiths" which was originally published in RealClearReligion on May 4, 2020.
A yearly tradition at HDS, the Stendahl Symposium honors the memory of former professor Krister Stendahl, who tirelessly sought to repair fractions between Jews and Christians, supported the ordination of women, and pushed for the full inclusion and participation of women and minority voices in academia and interfaith work. Each year, the symposium carries Stendahl's legacy forward by presenting student papers centered around the topic of “Conversations Across Religious Boundaries.” This year's symposium centered the political nature of Stendahl's legacy by engaging the following subtheme: "Solidarity, Resistance, and Liberation In and Through Religious Difference." This event took place on April 19, 2022.

In this episode of Religion Today host Martin Tanner explores the meaning of vicarious "Baptism for the Dead" by early Christians in Corinth as mentioned by the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:29. Harvard scholar and professor Krister Stendahl, later head of the Lutheran Church in Sweden, and the New English Translation of the Bible made by the Dallas Theological Seminary, suggest and acknowledge Paul was using Baptism for the Dead as an argument that the resurrection is real. Stated another way, the early Christians in Corinth believed in Baptism for the Dead, but some had doubts about the resurrection. Paul was trying to convince them the resurrection was real.

In this episode, we talk to Dr. Jason Myers, a New Testament scholar, about his new book Voices and Views on Paul, co-authored with Ben Witherington of Asbury Theological Seminary. We discuss Paul's reception in the contemporary church, the concerns of the New Perspective, and the relationship between the church and the academy. We also review one whiskey and - in a bold move - one bourbon-barrel aged wine. From this episode: Buy Jason's book here. Evan's Lagavulin 16 here. Drew and Jason's Stave & Steel cabernet here. Krister Stendahl's famous essay on Paul and the introspective conscience here.
Krister Stendahl, the Lutheran Bishop of Stockholm and Harvard Professor, taught that Christians should cultivate a "holy envy" for what you admire in other religions and wish you could make part of your own tradition. In this weeks sermon Dr. Keck will follow Stendahl's advice and look at what elements of Buddhism, Judaism, Islam and Hinduism could enhance our own Christian tradition.

Why only two-thirds? In this episode we look at a specific aspect of the immensely complex literary work known as the Acts of the Apostles: namely, the Holy Spirit’s gathering in of all human communities that have been estranged from God. The story begins with the Spirit’s gathering of the Jews, moves on to Samaritans and proselytes, then Gentiles in the form of Cornelius the centurion… at which point you might think all the possibilities have been covered. But wait! There’s one more group. Any guesses? You’d have to read Luke-Acts pretty closely to figure it out. Or you could just listen and we’ll give away the answer for free. Notes: 1. Ernst Haenchen, The Acts of the Apostles 2. “Wie es eigentlich gewesen ist” (or sometimes "wie es eigentlich geschehen ist"): Dad quoted this bit of German, which means “how it actually was/happened,” as the ideal to which the discipline of history aspires. 3. Oscar Cullmann, Christ and Time 4. Hans Conzelman, Acts of the Apostles 5. Krister Stendahl, Paul among Jews and Gentiles 6. Ernst Käsemann, Perspectives on Paul 7. Joseph Fitzmyer, The Acts of the Apostles 8. Cheryl Peterson, Who Is the Church? 9. Paul R. Hinlicky, Beloved Community (see especially pp. 348–355 where he talks about Peterson’s book) 10.

I worked there for 7½ years and continue as a Visiting Professor.

We talked briefly about the difference between “apocalyptic” and “salvation history.” For more about this, see Lutheran and the Beloved Community, ch. 7. 12. Pentecost = Shavuot in the Jewish tradition. 13. Troy Troftgruben is my Acts guru and teaches at Wartburg Theological Seminary. He’s working on a book on Acts… we’ll let you know as soon as it’s out!

How did Jews at the time of Jesus understand their relationship to the Law? Did they believe in “works righteousness”–the idea that only by obeying the commandments of Torah could they earn salvation? Did they believe in grace?
