This seems a very important contribution to the ongoing debate about contextualizing Paul's writings (and those of the broader New Testament).

A highly fascinating lecture and, as usual for George van Kooten (Cambridge), with far-reaching thoughts:

Another article from Cambridge that challenges an established thesis – this time, the one proposed by Simon Gathercole: "Did Paul Expect to Survive until the Parousia? A Suggested Re-reading of 1 Cor. 15.51–52"
