To Know All Mysteries: The Mystagogue Figure in Classical Antiquity and in Saint Paul’s Letters to the Corinthians - Paul in Critical Contexts
C. Andrew Ballard
This book examines the way that Paul presents himself as a guide into mysteries, a “mystagogue,” in 1-2 Corinthians. Paul employed the figure of the mystagogue as a strategic tool in his communication with the Corinthians in order to persuade the Corinthians that he was the legitimate mystery teacher for the community.
