One important topic in anthropology is particularly heuristic to our discussion of Paul&#039;s teaching of the resurrection of the dead: the continuity of identity of individuals. What makes a person&#039;s identity remain unchanged in the afterlife? How can we claim that a person who was dead will have the same \u201cself\u201d in the resurrection? The questions become more difficult if we consider 1 Corinthians 15 which emphasizes the discontinuity between the resurrected body and the dead. This paper explores the study of anthropology in Pauline studies in recent decades. It suggests that, Instead of \u201cpersonal identity\u201d as a human being, Paul highlights the \u201ccollective identity\u201d of the believers in Christ who is the representative of those entering the heavenly existence. The continuity of identity is somehow preserved in collective terms despite the marked contrast or discontinuity in the resurrection.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pauline Anthropology, Resurrection, and 1 Corinthians 15 LEUNG Chun Ho Bernard The anthropological presuppositions of Pauline theology are usually not issues to which students of the New Testament give precedence.
