Grounds the origins of the Corinthian Christ group within local social practice
The Origins of the Christ Movement in Corinth: Pauls Chord of Gods argues that Pauls language about his god (father, lord Jesus Christ and pneuma) would have been familiar to Corinthian gentiles as a small group of gods a chord of gods. Worship of Pauls chord of gods matches the common religious practice (in Theodore Schatzkis sense) around the ancient Mediterranean and in Corinth and would have been familiar to the Corinthians. This religious practice could have formed the basis of attraction for the Corinthians to join Pauls Christ group, served as a social engine for its growth among gentiles in Corinth and been a source of conflict with Paul that he tries to address in his letters to the Corinthians.
