Several recent studies have proposed that according to Paul gentiles join Abraham's lineage in a quasi-physiological way by being infused with material πνɛῦμα. This article assesses that proposal, finding it to be an inaccurate description of Paul's language and rationale, and sets forth an alternative proposal based on Romans 4 and Paul's descriptions of baptism. This alternative proposal is that Paul understood the forging of an Abrahamic and divine pedigree for gentiles to be a divine act of creation from nothing, that is concomitant with believers’ proleptic death and resurrection in solidarity with the messiah.

Πνɛῦμα，宗谱血统和保罗认为不存在的事物

最近的几项研究表明，根据保罗的说法，外邦人通过注入材料 πνɛ​​ῦμα 以准生理方式加入亚伯拉罕的血统。本文评估了该提议，发现它对保罗的语言和基本原理的描述不准确，并根据罗马书 4 章和保罗对洗礼的描述提出了另一种提议。这个替代建议是，保罗将外邦人的亚伯拉罕和神圣血统的锻造理解为从无到有的神圣创造行为，这伴随着信徒的预感死亡和与弥赛亚团结一致的复活。
