Wow!!! The Chapter 10 summary hit me like a good plot twist. I'll be curious to read the full chapter for Tim's argument of/why the Pauline school may have been the first to form–or if it's even all that important or not what the chronology of the factions may have been. It also leaves me wondering about the supposed origins of the Corinthian slogans. Under chapter 10's thesis, is there any higher likelihood that Paul may be quoting... himself?! That is, he remembered teaching something years ago, but saw how it was changed/abused by his sophoi students, so then issued new statements to temper his old ones.
“But the evidence is there to male plausible the possibility of social connections between Titius or his circle and philosophers in the area.” I assume “male” should be “make”?
