Jesus Remembered

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“A magnificent achievement. Jesus Remembered is massively thorough and wide-ranging, innovative in its stress on orality, at times provocative, yet also immensely readable and clear. James Dunn's book will undoubtedly shape Jesus study for the next generation and more. This is a 'must' for all those engaged in study of Jesus at whatever level.”

Philippians

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Holloway displays a superb mastery of a massive range of both Jewish and non-Jewish materials to throw light on Paul’s letter. This outstanding commentary will be a standard work on Philippians for many years to come.”

The Christian Way—Reality or Illusion?

Theology

“In this quest for what is 'real' in the Christian way, Sandy Wedderburn confronts the New Testament texts--gospels and letters--in a ruthlessly honest and rigorous way to identify what can, or should, be maintained by Christians in today's world. Critical in the best sense, this small book will provide powerful reading for those prepared to face the challenges encountered by all who take the NT and contemporary faith seriously.”

The Oral Gospel Tradition

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Over many years Jimmy Dunn has alerted us all to the importance of taking seriously the presence of oral tradition in and behind our present Gospels. This volume provides many of his key essays on that broad topic, including a number of responses to critiques by others. As with all of Dunn’s work, the argument is invariably readable, persuasive, and compelling. This will be an invaluable resource for all those engaged in study of the Gospels, their sources, and their witness to the person of Jesus.”

The Rise of Christian Beliefs

Theology

“Writing from an avowedly history–of–religions—rather than 'theological'—perspective and fleshing out some of his earlier programmatic studies and critiques of "New Testament Theology," Räisänen gives an account of the rise of early Christian beliefs in a dynamic, non–partisan way. Thoroughly researched but always clear, thoughtful, and thought–provoking. This will be absolutely essential reading for all students of early Christianity.”
