초록
This study tries to place St. Paul’s self-revelation in Romans in the literary context as a rhetorical tool for his audience, the Romans. It also elaborates on how literary devices reinforce Paul’s argument about the law and why he inserts his personal and emotional utterances into the strict legal document. The passage in question has been called an excursus, intrusion, or foreign body, which does not seem to be authentically Pauline due to its personal style of writing, markedly different from that of the rest of the letter. From a literary perspective, however, this study interprets it as a core portion of the entire body of Paul’s admonition on the law in Romans; he uses it as a persuasive means to bring home his argument in a dramatic way.
