NIVAC 14: Psalms, Volume 2 (73-150)

An Introduction to the New Testament focuses on 'special introduction'
that is historical questions dealing with authorship, date, sources, purpose,
destination, and so forth. This approach stands in contrast to recent texts
that concentrate more on literary form, rhetorical criticism, and historical
parallels - topics the authors don't minimize, but instead think are better
given extended treatment in exegesis courses.

By refocusing on the essentials, this introduction ensures that the New
Testament books will be accurately understood within historical settings. For
each NT 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 recent 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
perspective.' The discussion of New Testament epistles has been expanded to
form a new chapter. (= 9781844740895)
