Abstract

Here, a Biblical Studies question (structure in the apostle Paul’s extant epistles) is explored by applying SFL methods and tools (generic structure potential and the multidimensional approach to text in context). 1 Corinthians is analysed as a pilot study, with a view to providing a rigorous, multistratal account of how Paul means in his letters.
