Summary
What is the relationship between the preeminent, cosmos-reconciling 'Christ' of Col 1:15-20 and the imprisoned 'Paul' of 1:24-29? Bruce Clark argues that the descriptions of Christ and the Apostle Paul found in Colossians 1 combine to present the two as unique agents who together initiate the plan of ancient Israel's God to reconcile the cosmos.
