Jesus, Paul, Luke-Acts, and 1 Clement

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This collection of eleven representative essays takes readers on the life journey of an important exegete and is an invitation to a wide spectrum of New Testament discipline and methodological approaches, ranging from questions on the social and political dimensions of early Christianity in conflict within and with the Roman Empire, religious and geographical dimensions of the Samaritan/Judean border, social injustice, and intersectionality. This is a remarkably well-written collection of stimulating essays that illustrates David L. Balch’s involvement in liminality, acculturation, and intersectionality.”

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“From the question of the political dimension of Paul’s Gospel, the socio-historical situatedness of Robert Jewett’s Romans: A Commentary, to the honor-shame competition of Rome’s society and the Corinthian correspondence, this is a rich collection of stimulating essays that illustrate Robert Jewett’s lasting contributions to Pauline scholarship.”
