Description

An Introduction to the New Testament makes a speciality of “special introduction” that may be historical questions dealing with authorship, date, sources, purpose, destination, and so on. This approach stands in contrast to contemporary texts that concentrate more on literary form, rhetorical criticism, and historical parallels—topics the authors don’t minimize, but as an alternative think are better given extended remedy in exegesis courses. By refocusing on the essentials, An Introduction to the New Testament ensures that the New Testament books will be appropriately understood within historical settings. For every New Testament document, the authors also provide a substantial summary of that book’s content, discuss the book’s theological contribution to the overall canon, and give an account of current studies on that book, including contemporary literary and social-science approaches to interpretation. This second edition reflects significant revision and expansion from the original, making this highly acclaimed text even more valuable. • A new chapter provides a historical survey examining Bible study method through the ages. • The chapter on Paul has been expanded to include an analysis of debates on the “new standpoint.” • The discussion of New Testament epistles has been expanded to form a new chapter. This new edition will assist a new generation of students better grasp the message of the New Testament.
