Aprašymas
The New Testament letters to Timothy and Titus (LTT) are often lumped together as "The Pastoral Epistles." While there are understandable reasons for this approach, it has meant that the distinctive contribution of each of the three letters has not been sufficiently considered. Furthermore, narrative approaches to the Pauline letters have led to fruitful explorations of their theology, especially in discussions about salvation-historical and apocalyptic perspectives, but these approaches have not been applied to the LTT, at least in part due to their marginal status in scholarly discussion. Together, these gaps have impoverished our understanding of the theology and purpose of the LTT.
John Percival therefore applies a narrative approach to examine the salvation-historical outlook of each letter. Adopting minimal assumptions about authorship, he reviews each letter in turn, describing the components of a narrative "plan of salvation." He examines the relationship between the elements of the plan to shed light on the narrative world, theology and, especially, the rhetorical purpose of the letter. Despite their brevity, the three letters display clear differences in narrative data. Percival identifies areas where the letters have been misrepresented or misunderstood in scholarly literature, arriving at a clearer understanding of each letter's distinctive theological construction and use of the plan of salvation.
