The Community, the Individual and the Common Good synopsis

This book examines Paul's effort to combat factionalism through his use of the Greco-Roman discourse "common advantage" to overcome the social and ethical problems caused by the improper practice of "special advantage" in Corinth. Zhang examines the "common advantage", first, as a fundamental principle that defines human and community relations in the Greco-Roman world. Explores how neglect and misunderstanding of this concept lies in the origin of relational and societal faults.

The book also examines Paul's use of the term and explains that when understood and understood correctly, the principle of "common advantage" is central to maintaining societies and dynamic and healthy relationships. Conversely, when the common feature does not work, and at the same time, the special feature is incorrectly emphasized at its expense, the relational, societal and ecclesiastical faults occur.

Concludes the book by explaining that for Paul, the "common advantage" carries fatal and inevitable consequences that go beyond and break into the socio-ethnic boundaries. In this way, hostile social groups will achieve healthy coexistence..
