The Righteousness of God
A Lexical Examination of the Covenant-Faithfulness Interpretation
Seiten
Die relationale Interpretation von "Gerechtigkeit" wurde erstmals von Hermann Cremer im Jahr 1899 vorgebracht und übte großen Einfluss auf die Bibelwissenschaft des 20. Jahrhunderts aus. Charles Lee Irons liefert eine kritische Untersuchung von Cremers zentralen Argumenten für die relationale Interpretation der Bundestreue und entwickelt eine alternative Interpretation der Gerechtigkeit als Geschenk.
Advocates of the New Perspective on Paul appeal to the view that "righteousness" in biblical theology is a Verhältnisbegriff (relational concept). This is the view that "righteousness" does not mean conformity to a norm, nor is it an essentially legal concept; rather, "righteousness" denotes the fulfillment of the demands of a relationship, since the relationship itself is the norm. This relational interpretation of "righteousness" was first put forward by Hermann Cremer in 1899 and exercised a profound influence in biblical scholarship throughout the 20th century. It lies at the root of the New Perspective claim that "the righteousness of God" in Paul is a cipher for God's saving faithfulness to his covenant, a view defended by N. T. Wright, among others. Charles Lee Irons provides a critical examination of Cremer's chief arguments for the relational, covenant-faithfulness interpretation. The author argues instead for the view that "the righteousness of God" in Rom 1:17; 3:21-22; 10:3; 2 Cor 5:21; and Phil 3:9 is the status of righteousness that comes from God as a gift.
