Nomos i Ho Nomos w listach Pawłowych

At least since Origen there has been discussion how to understand in Paul's Epistles an articular and anarthrous form of nomos in relation to the Mosaic law. The consensus is that no firm rule can be established on the basis of the article's presence or absence. In this paper we indicated some trends in using and omitting the article. Context still remains a very important guide but our contribution consists in paying attention to the so-called Oral Tradition. In this way some unsolved cases can be explained.
