Abstract

The aim of this paper is to show analogies and contrasts between Heidegger’s and Nietzsche’s interpretation of the Pauline Epistles. The first step is to show the ambiguity of Paul’s figure in Nietzsche’s thought and his connection with Jesus of Nazareth. Paul, founder of Christianity, created a religion of resentment, empowering the powerless. Heidegger, far from Nietzsche’s philosophical moral approach, reads Paul to investigate the roots of religious life: the Pauline Epistles , above all, deal with the awaiting of Parousia, which, far from being a mere hope, is the completion of all believer’s life.
