초록

로마서 9장이 ‘개인 선택’(individual election)을 전제한다고 보는 개혁주의 성경학자들과 달리, 브라이언 아바시아노는 최근 저작물에서 로마서 9장이 ‘개인 선택’이 아닌 ‘집단적 선택’(corporate election)을 주로 가르친다고 주장한다. 먼저 그는 바울이 로마서 9장에서 인용하는 구약 본문들이 ‘개인 선택’을 말하고 있지 않다고 주장한다. 나아가 이스라엘의 집단적 사회문화적 환경과 구약의 ‘집단적 연대성’(corporate solidarity)의 개념, 그리고 바울 당대의 헬레니즘 문화 및 유대주의가 바울로 하여금 로마서 9장을 ‘집단적 선택’의 관점으로 기술하게 만들었다고 말한다. 한편 필자는 본 글을 통해 아바시아노의 주장을 반박한다. 첫째, 로마서 9장 6-13절이 인용하는 구약 본문들은 아바시아노의 주장과 달리 모두 ‘개인 선택’을 우선 지지한다. 둘째, 아바시아노가 기술한 이스라엘의 사회문화적 환경 및 구약의 ‘집합적 연대성’에 대한 설명에는 심각한 오류가 있다. 이러한 논의 위에, 아바시아노의 로마서 9장 해석에 오류가 있으며, 개혁주의 해석을 따라 로마서 9장이 ‘개인 선택’을 지지하는 본문으로 보는 것이 옳다고 결론 내린다.

Abstract

Brian Abasciano, in his recent publications on Romans 9, denies the primacy of individual election (or predestination) in Romans 9. Rather, he maintains that the nature of election in Romans 9 is predominately corporate. In support of his view, he deals with three issues: (1) The OT texts that Paul cites in Romans 9:1-18 generally support the corporate election. (2) The socio-cultural milieu of ancient Israel and the OT concept of “corporate solidarity/representation” further strengthen the concept of corporate election in Romans 9. (3) The Hellenistic culture and Judaism of Paul’s day that were dominantly “collectivist rather than individuals” might have shaped Paul’s understanding of election as corporate. This paper, however, finds Abasciano’s interpretation of Romans 9 problematic for the following reasons. (1) His view of corporate election in Genesis 18:10, 14; 21:21 (quoted in Rom 9:7-9) and Genesis 25:3 and Malachi 1:2-3 (cited in Rom 9:10-13) might not be exegetically correct. (2) His claim on the socio-cultural milieu of the OT period and the concept of corporate solidarity/representation is misleading. As a result, many of his reading of Romans 9:6-13 stand on a questionable ground. Contrary to Abasciano argument, therefore, this paper argues that Romans 9 clearly teaches individual election unto salvation.
