《次经》灵肉观对《新约》的影响

The Influence of Apocryphal Soul-Body Perspectives on theNewTestament

《次经》灵肉二元论、灵魂高于肉体、灵魂拯救肉体观念对《新约》有直接影响。以往研究强调希腊哲学对基督教灵肉观的影响,而忽视希腊化时期犹太教灵肉观对《新约》的影响。《次经》灵肉观对《新约》的影响表明《次经》具有过渡作用,是致使早期基督教灵肉观形成的两大重要因素之一。《次经》灵肉观对《新约》的影响研究有助于探讨基督教灵肉观的二希思想来源,也有助于了解犹太和基督教哲学灵肉观的同源性、整体性和差异性。

Apocryphal perspectives such as soul-body dualism,the soul being higher than the flesh,and the soul saving the flesh,had a direct influence on the New Testament.Previous studies have focused on the influence of Greek philosophy on Christian soul-body thinking and have ignored the influence of the soul-body views of Hellenistic Judaism.The influence of the soul-body views in the Apocrypha on the New Testament show the transitional role of the Apocrypha,as one of two great influences during the early formation of Christian soulbody views.The study of the influence of the soul-body views in the Apocrypha on the New Testament is helpful in exploring the sources of Christian ideas in both Hebrew and Hellenistic thought,and also contributes to understanding the cognate nature,overall picture and dissimilarities of Jewish and Christian philosophies on soul and body.
