Συνɛίδησις is a relatively rare word, but a favourite for Paul, whose undisputed texts contain nearly half of its New Testament occurrences. In the 19th and 20th centuries, scholars debated the origin of the substantive and the possibility of Stoic influence, which led to a consensus that the term was not a technical philosophical one and Paul's use was not affected by Stoic thought. There is evidence, though, that the presence of συνɛίδησις in a few Stoic texts is due to its semantic relationship in Stoic discourse with συναίσθησις, the Stoic term for self-perception, which was a key component in their epistemological and ethical theory. This article argues that a reading of Paul's use of συνɛίδησις as Stoic self-perception explains the distinctive features of his use to which scholars have recently drawn attention, namely, the permanent and continuous operation of the συνɛίδησις, its ability to be passively impacted by the actions of others and the neutral or positive content of its reflexive knowledge. After a review of recent scholarship, I discuss the role of συναίσθησις in Stoic theory and the evidence for its semantic relationship to συνɛίδησις, then offer a reading of 1 Cor 8–10 demonstrating Paul's use of συνɛίδησις as self-perception.

保罗文本中的 Συνɛίδησις 和斯多葛派的自我认知

Συνɛίδησις 是一个相对少见的词，但却是保罗的最爱，他无可争议的文本包含了近一半的新约出现。在 19日和 20日几个世纪以来，学者们争论实质性的起源和斯多葛学派影响的可能性，这导致达成共识，即该术语不是技术哲学术语，保罗的使用不受斯多葛学派思想的影响。不过，有证据表明，在一些斯多葛派文本中出现 συνειδησις 是由于它在斯多葛派话语中与 συναίσθησις 的语义关系，后者是斯多葛派的自我认知术语，是他们的认识论和伦理理论的关键组成部分。本文认为，阅读保罗使用 συνειδησις 作为斯多葛派的自我认知，可以解释他的使用的显着特征，学者们最近引起了人们的注意，即 συνειδησις 的永久和连续操作，它被动地受到他人行为影响的能力，以及其反身知识的中性或积极内容。在回顾了最近的学术研究之后，我讨论了 συναίσθησις 在斯多葛学派理论中的作用，以及它与 συνɛίδησις 语义关系的证据，然后提供了 1 Cor 8-10 的阅读，证明了保罗使用 συνειδησις 作为自我认知。
