This article considers the Pauline construction of a “spiritual body” in 1 Corinthians 15 and his flesh/spirit dualism more generally in light of Paul’s probable disability. I suggest that this rhetoric functioned as a strategy for Paul to claim social power in his social context by deemphasizing his physical presence, and thus reflects a negotiation with cultural patterns of disability abjection rather than a meaningful part of Christian teaching. Because of the active harm done by these dualistic constructions, however unintentional such an interpretation may have been on Paul’s part, liberative Christian theologies must reject this framing and work to integrate not just “body” and spirit but also flesh and its more negative bodily associations such as weakness, pain, illness, and death.

保罗的肉体:肉体/精神二元论的残疾阅读

本文考虑到保罗可能有残疾,保罗在哥林多前书 15 章中对“灵体”的构建和他的肉体/精神二元论更普遍。我认为,这种修辞是保罗通过淡化他的身体存在来在他的社会背景中主张社会权力的一种策略,因此反映了与残疾堕落的文化模式的谈判,而不是基督教教义的一个有意义的部分。由于这些二元论的结构造成了积极的伤害,无论保罗的这种解释可能是无意的,解放的基督教神学必须拒绝这种框架和工作,不仅要整合“身体”和精神,还要整合肉体及其更消极的身体联系比如虚弱、痛苦、疾病和死亡。
