paradosis Theol.|pəˈrædəsɪs| [Gr. παράδοσις, a handing down, a tradition.] A historical tradition, spec. relating to the teachings of Christ and of his disciples; teaching based on this tradition.
1950L. S. Thornton Revelation & Mod. World ix. 285 The apostolic paradosis was embodied, not only in the apostolic writings, but also in the accredited teachers of the Catholic Church who could show their ‘didactic successions’ from the apostles. 1953Scottish Jrnl. Theol. VI. 117 This is a tradition, a paradosis which does not fall under the condemnation which Jesus pronounces with regard to the paradosis in general. 1956Ibid. IX. 434 Cullmann's thesis is that Paul was able to accord a higher place to the paradosis he had received, despite the fact that Jesus had denounced the high place accorded to paradosis in Judaism. 1958A. Richardson Introd. Theol. N.T. xvi. 365 We must not make the mistake of the older NT critics who thought that what was to be interpreted was a number of ancient documents, which could be more objectively judged if they were isolated from the paradosis of the Church. 1973Amer. Jrnl. Philol. XCIV. 320 Modern editors treat χειᾷ as a reasoned Triclinian conjecture. But χειᾷ proves almost certainly to be nothing but a further perversion of an already corrupt paradosis. |
