Corpus-Paul

["Garner, Rick" <rgarner AT Criswell.edu>]

You might want to check Wanamaker (1990) on Thessalonians and Kennedy
(1984).  Philemon may perhaps be the best example of Paul's use of Rhetoric.
Notice the pathos (13-14) the logos (15-16) and ethos (17 ff) imbedded in a
classical exordium (4-7) and peroration (20-22).

Cordially,
Rick Garner
Assistant Professor of Preaching
The Criswell College

Get to the ancient rhetoric moderated by Jim Hester. It has massive 
resources for rhetoric.
