로마서의 약한 자와 강한 자 -로마서 14장 1-6절을 중심으로- = The Weak and the Strong in Romans (Romans 14:1-6)

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The context between the weak and the strong in Romans 14-15 can be understood when we should gradationally recognize a circumstance during Jewish absence in Rome at that time, a conflict situation among the Gentiles including God-fearers, and a altered condition after Jewish return in Rome. This study aims to reconstruct the context of Roman community by consider-ing the existence of God-fearers to better understand the debate between the weak and the strong. After a deportation order of Claudius, Jewish leaders in the community had to be deported from Rome, the Gentiles had to preserve the community by themselves. There were three group members among the remained Gentile in the community: gentile proselyte, God-fearer, and gen-tile novice. During the absence of Jewish leaders, the community might have been congregated, centering on the strong in the gentile christians in Rome. However, they might have caused food problem and issues of keeping the Sabbath on their own. As a result the community would not just gradually grown apart from Torah but it could also encounter the conflict with God-fearers who had tried to keep the commandments of Torah precisely. Contrary to the strong gentiles, the group of the weak composed of God-fearers would complain about the issues to the Jewish leaders when they had returned. Consequently, the tension between the returned Jewish leaders and the strong gentiles might be mounted. This is when Paul urged that they should accept one another mutually, and he further pointed out concretely their faults. So those who are strong ought to bear with the fail-ings of the weak and those who are weak ought not to judge the strong.
