Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] Paul alters the canons of classical epistolography, modifying the Hellenistic letter in its formal structure and giving it theological depth. Compared to the Greek prototype, the Pauline letter has a greater length, aiming at instructing the cult and the Christian faith in a more persuasive manner.
