Q
  1. Understand letter writing in ancient times
A

Letters can be written to: group, individual or circular (sent to multiple groups)
Structure includes: salutation (sender, recipient, greeting), thanksgiving/prayer, body, exhortation and instructions, conclusion
Length: one papyrus sheet/scroll
Form: Opening, Thanksgiving, Body, Closing
Scribe/Secretary: (Amanuensis)
A Recorder: word for word dictation
Editor: Tidied the final copy making corrections as needed
Substitute author: wrote after giving general instructions from another – Rom 16:22 – Tertius
Paul’s letters, on the other hand, were lengthy (Philemon: 335 words to Romans: 7,114 words). For Romans, about 30 sheets!
New Literary Form: Theology and Practical Instructions for Holy Living in Community
Paul personally wrote final greeting: (1 Cor. 16:22, Gal. 6:11; Col. 4:18; 2 Thess. 3:17)
Paul’s letters often seem a rough form of Greek – breaks in thoughts but comes back. This would be challenging to the most expert scribe.
Also, using a variety of scribes – not one would have the same style
Paul’s Letters (13)
To churches (longest to shortest)
To individuals (longest to shortest)
Other Letters (8)
Arranged longest to shortest

Q
  1. Five verses from Romans 8 that include the Holy Spirit
A

5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.

6 The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.

13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.

14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.

16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans
