49. For a critique of the people-of-God idea see Aletti, “Le Status de l’Église,” 153–74.
50. Horrell’s work has been chosen because he engages with the issue of solidarity; Trebilco’s work provides a close focus on ἐκκλησία amongst other NT self-designations, and Meeks’s work remains standard.
51. I acknowledge here that the terminology of “Christian” is anachronistic in discussing the Pauline Church, and therefore I will seek to avoid using it. However, there are occasions when no other term is any better. For a discussion of this see Trebilco, Self-designations, 3–4.

57. Meeks, First Urban Christians, 75. Note that Ascough, “Translocal Relationships,” 223–41, argues that the translocal links between associations are more extensive, and the translocal links between Christian groups less extensive than is normally assumed. I will argue in following chapters that translocal links and expectations are both extensive and significant in Paul’s letters.
