Jeffrey R. Asher examines the themes of polarity and change in Paul's argument in 1 Corinthians 15:35-57. He demonstrates that Paul uses a didactic method of argumentation to demonstrate to some of the Corinthians that there will be a resurrection of the dead. Given the nature of Paul's argument, it is quite likely that certain members of the Corinthian church denied the doctrine of the resurrection of the dead because they believed that it is impossible for a terrestrial body to be raised to the celestial realm. In addition they considered the two cosmic realms to constitute a polarity. Using a didactic method of accommodation in verses 35-49, Paul demonstrates to these Corinthian intellectuals that the doctrine of the resurrection complies with the polarity that exists between the celestial and terrestrial realms. In verses 50-57, he corrects their false conclusion regarding the resurrection by showing that the body will be changed to conform with the strictures of heavenly existence.

Polarität und Verwandlung im 1. Korinther 15. Eine Untersuchung der Metaphysik, Rhetorik und Auferstehung. Von Jeffrey R. Asher.
Jeffrey R. Asher untersucht die Argumentation des Paulus im 1. Korinther 15. Er macht deutlich, daß Paulus die philosophische und kosmologische Herausforderung in Bezug auf die Lehre der Auferstehung der Toten annahm, die einige Mitglieder der christlichen Gemeinde in Korinth an ihn stellten. Zudem zeigt der Autor, wie Paulus in der Lage war, die philosophischen Prinzipien der Polarität und Verwandlung zu übernehmen, um den christlichen Intellektuellen im alten Korinth die Glaubwürdigkeit der Auferstehungslehre zu verdeutlichen.
