Recenzii
'Complete with an extraordinary array of visual illustrations, this book covers important topics needed for an introductory text in New Testament in a way that is both understandable and well-informed. It emphasizes many details that help students discover the biblical text in new ways they would rarely get on their own.'
'Few, if any, New Testament surveys can rival this one in terms of its multiple strengths: academic rigor, accessible and engaging style, and visual appeal. This balance means the text appeals equally to both students and professors--a rare accomplishment. The first edition was excellent; the revision is even better.'
'For years I have searched in vain for a book that would introduce students to the New Testament--with clear outlines, graphic images, historical contexts, timelines, maps, and bibliographies. My search is over; this is that book.'
'I've assigned The New Testament in Antiquity for years, with appreciation for the wealth of information the first edition offered students: photographs to help them visualize life in the New Testament world; sidebars with information on social, historical, and cultural backgrounds; quotations from primary sources; maps and charts galore. The new edition keeps these distinctives, but the revisions to the layout, organization, and the text itself make the volume even more accessible to students--including those with little preparation for the study of the New Testament. This comprehensive, comprehensible introduction is a valuable asset for the classroom.'
'Since this is a text that has shaped my teaching for many years, I'm pleased to see the revised version retains its rigorous historical context, which has continually set an excellent foundation for informed theological conversation. The vivacity of a thorough revision guarantees that I and my students will remain exposed to the fresh wisdom and beauty of New Testament study.'
'What a welcome update to an already cutting-edge introduction to the New Testament! The strength of the first edition was its ability to make connections: connecting today's reader to the ancient Mediterranean world of the New Testament and connecting the best of academic research with the life and ministry of the church. This second revised edition maintains the connections of the first and improves upon them. It does not disappoint.Burge and Green have done a phenomenal job of connecting seminary students, undergraduates, pastors, and church leaders to the historically contingent and relevant message of the first-century authors so that modern interpreters can preach, teach, and apply that same message in our current contexts. It's an ideal textbook in many ways. I'm pleased to give The New Testament in Antiquity my highest recommendation. Well done!'

Descriere
This completely revised and updated second edition of The New Testament in Antiquity skillfully develops how Jewish, Hellenistic, and Roman cultures formed the essential environment in which the New Testament authors wrote their books and letters. Understanding of the land, history, and culture of the ancient world brings remarkable new insights into how we read the New Testament itself.
Throughout the book, numerous features provide windows into the first-century world. Nearly 500 full color photos, charts, maps, and drawings have been carefully selected. Additional features include sidebars that integrate the book's material with issues of interpretation, discussion questions, and bibliographies.
