"Those Who Call Themselves Jews"

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This is a careful, well-argued thesis, which takes seriously the symbolic and recapitulative nature of Revelation's images. It recognizes how John's visions often describe the same realities through a kaleidoscope of images.”

Eve Was Named an Apostle

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Combining intertextuality, narratology, and attention to early reception, Daniel Schneider offers an absorbing account of Johannine women characters, both named and unnamed, and how the Johannine narrative fares in the hands of one particular Johannine tradent, Hippolytus. Schneider’s is a richly layered book, amply demonstrating the potential of close textual reading and of pursuing a particular thread along the line of early tradition.”

That the Scriptures Might Be Fulfilled through Perfect Worship

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this elegantly-written book, Nathanael Polinski demonstrates how the gradual unfolding of the theme of worship prepares the ground for understanding scriptural fulfillment in the Fourth Gospel’s passion account. Sensitive to this Gospel’s intertextual and intratextual allusions, and to ancient Jewish exegetical methods, Polinski opens up the rich potential of John’s Old Testament quotations. This is a rich and insightful contribution, from an author who has drunk deeply from the Johannine spring.”

The Book of Revelation

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“John Paul Heil offers a compelling interpretation of the book of Revelation as a prophecy unveiling true, life-giving worship and the death-dealing consequences of false alternatives. Heil's book is a timely reminder that the Apocalypse is a text to be heard, and that it makes its greatest impact in the context of the eucharistic liturgy.”
