In the much contested field of New Testament studies this textbook draws on a wide spectrum of biblical scholarship to provide students with a balanced critical overview of the origins and early expressions of Christian belief. The book is organized systematically with questions for in-class discussion and written assignment, step-by-step reading guides on individual works, special box features, charts, maps, an appendix with translations of primary texts, and numerous illustrations designed to facilitate student use.
Chapters on specific biblical texts include: - Introduction to the critical issues, historical setting, and themes of the literature; - Outline of the text with explanatory and interpretive comments; - Discussion/review questions for in-class use and homework; - Suggestions for further study. |
