Louw & Nida describe EPAISXUNOMAI: "To experience or feel shame or disgrace
because of some particular event or activity.
Paul expresses very similar concepts in 1 Corintians 1:17-25...except he
seems to emphasize "STAUROS" instead of "EUANGELION" in some places.
So is it correct to say that in Romans 1:16 Paul was using the term
EUANGELION here specifically in reference to the crucifixion event? Or is
there another angle on this? Did he have hO LOGOS GAR hO TOU STAUROU or a
more general message? If it is just a general reference to the gospel then
why did Paul select EPAISXUNOMAI ?
Thank you.
