bullet "Outward and Inward Morality," I Corinthians 15:10, Meister Eckhart.
bulletFrom the Geneva Notes.
bullet"And so at the length he begins this treatise at Christ's resurrection, which is the ground and foundation of ours, and confirms it first by the testimony of the scriptures and by the witness of the apostles, and of more than five hundred brethren, and last of all by his own."
bulletFrom Matthew Henry's Commentary.
bullet"When sinners are, by Divine grace, turned into saints, God causes the remembrance of former sins to make them humble, diligent, and faithful."
bulletFrom Wesley's Notes.
bullet"An untimely birth - It was impossible to abase himself more than he does by this single appellation. As an abortion is not worthy the name of a man, so he affirms himself to be not worthy the name of an apostle."
bulletFrom the Commentary on the Whole Bible (Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
bullet"Christ's resurrection rests on the evidence of many eye-witnesses, including Paul himself, and is the great fact preached as the groundwork of the Gospel: they who deny the resurrection in general, must deny that of Christ, and the consequence of the latter will be, that Christian preaching and faith are vain."
bulletFrom The People's New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891.
bullet"Among the various false doctrines which had crept into the church at Corinth, composed of those who had so recently been heathen, and who had so much to unlearn, was one that the resurrection of the soul from sin to a new life; that this resurrection was already past in the case of those converted (2 Tim. 2:18), and that a resurrection after death was impossible."
bulletContemporary Commentary, Studies and Exegesis:
bullet 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, Proper 5C: Comments (commentary) and Clippings (technical notes for in-depth study), Chris Haslam, Anglican Diocese of Montreal.
bullet "First Thoughts on Passages on Year C Epistle Passages in the Lectionary: Epiphany 5," William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
bullet"One may wonder why Paul suddenly interrupts his concerns with spiritual gifts which he has been expounding since chapter 12 to speak about resurrection. The answer becomes clear when we look at the whole chapter and at the whole letter."
bullet "The Faith Once Delivered to the Saints," Rev. Bryan Findlayson, Lectionary Bible Studies and Sermons, Pumpkin Cottage Ministry Resources.
bullet"What is the gospel, what are we to do with it, what can it give us and what must our response to it be?"
bullet Kairos CoMotion Lectionary Discussion, 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, Wesley White. "A place of conversation regarding Progressive Christianity."
bullet "Proclaimed and received - a circuit through which energy might flow. This is a valuable tool that can evolve as it works."
bullet "Basic Faith," Expository Essay, 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, Dr. William R. Long. Part 2.
bullet"...even today, when you communicate that word, you combine both the tradition and your personality. The tradition comes through you, too."
bullet "This Is What We Preach," The Journey with Jesus: Notes to Myself, Daniel B. Clendenin, Journey with Jesus Foundation.
bullet"I believe the first believers partly because of their chronicle of disbelief—their own and that of their detractors. To me it rings true. They knew from firsthand experience that you cannot compel belief in the resurrection."
bullet"The Living Tradition of the Cross," analysis and reflections by Steven C. Kuhl in Sabbatheology by The Crossings Community of St Louis.
bullet"Indeed, even today, the cross and resurrection are so closely connected in the life of the believer that the resurrection appears as nothing other than the living tradition of the cross in the life of those who believe."
bullet "First Thoughts on Passages on Year B Epistle Passages in the Lectionary: Easter Day," William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
bullet"Affirming that God raised Jesus from the dead (whether with a transformation model or a replacement model) is foundational for reading the story of Jesus as paradigmatic for us all: there is death and there is hope!"
bullet 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, Easter B: Comments (commentary) and Clippings (technical notes for in-depth study), Chris Haslam, Anglican Diocese of Montreal.
bulletArticles & Background:
bullet"1 Corinthians 15:Thematic Elaboration." From The Tapestry of Early Christian Discourse: Rhetoric, Society and Ideology, Dr. Vernon K. Robbins, London: Routledge, 1996.
bullet"Elaboration, then, is a mode of argumentation central to early Christian discourse. Without this kind of intertextual argument, it is doubtful that Christianity would have become a powerful alternative to other Jewish groups at the time."
bullet"Apocryphal Apparitions: 1 Corinthians 15:3-11 as Post-Pauline Interpolation," by Robert M. Price. Journal of Higher Criticism 2/2 (1995).
bullet"...this pericope presents us instead with a piece of later, post-Pauline Christianity."
bullet "The Burdened Convert," David Daube, in Appeasement or Resistance and Other Essays on New Testament Judaism. University of California Press, 1987.
bullet "Towards Sharing the One Faith," Faith and Order Paper No. 113. World Council of Churches, 1996. A study/discussion guide on the Nicene Creed.
bullet "Awakened by Easter," Gayraud Wilmore, Christianity and Crisis, 1989. At Religion Online.
bullet"Since rereading 1 Corinthians 15 during these days of quiet bereavement I have been more than usually sensitive to the New Testament image of death as sleep, to the several connotations and implications of words in the Bible that speak of sleeping and awakening, perishing and quickening, death and resurrection."
