Paul, serviteur de la nouvelle alliance
Edouard Cothenet - Collection Lire la Bible
Résumé
--
The question of the Church ministry has never been more topical. On this point of renewal, the Vatican II Council benefitted from exegetical studies that sparked off work still largely unfinished. In fact, although the First Epistle to the Corinthians and the pastoral epistles were extensively studied, it is the Second Epistle to the Corinthians - too little heeded- that best shows how Paul carried out his task as a 'minister of the new Alliance', methodically countering those he called 'false prophets'. To the mysticism of glory, Paul opposes that of participation in Christ's weakness, in order that Life may shine forth. In so doing, the Apostle reveals to us the secret of his apostolic life: to transmit the treasure of the Gospel in the austerity of service, under the aegis of the Holy Spirit. He gives himself entirely, without hiding his anxiety, his jealous zeal and his exuberant joy, and his faith in his companions. The Second Epistle to the Corinthians strikes us with its humanity, which encourages Churches to overcome the eternal problems they encounter on a daily basis. One word, on which Saint Paul relies heavily, stands out distinctly: 'My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.' (2 Co 12, 9). With pedagogical skill and erudition, Father Cothenet brings us a biblical study that will nourish ecclesial life. He opens our eyes to Tradition and the commentaries of the Fathers, especially St. John Chrysostom.
