'Immortality' of the Soul" An excerpt from Chapter 6, "Dimensions
of Redemption," of Creation and Redemption (vol. 3 of the Collected
Works) (Nordland Pub. Co., Belmont, MA: 1976), pp. 213-240. See also biblical

- Oscar Cullmann, Immortality

compares the Greek conception of the immortality of the soul with the early
Christian conception of the resurrection, and shows that they are so different
in orgin and in the practice of the early Church, as to be mutually exclusive.
