Summary
The article gives an overview about the use of ethnic language in the epistles of Paul. The argument aims to demonstrate that Paul uses ethnic terminology for a metaphoric construction of a symbolic universe which is qualified as »new creation« (Gal 6:15) established by God himself. Additionally it is argued that there isn't any »ethnicity discourse« in Paul's writings, but only an »Israelicity discourse.«
