Max Botner. Jesus Christ as the Son of David in the Gospel of Mark
This book is a lightly revised version of Botner’s doctoral thesis (St. Andrews 2017, supervised by Elizabeth Shively) in which he argues that Jesus is presented in Mark’s Gospel as the Son of David.The first chapter poses the problem to be addressed and the approach that Botner will take in exploring the topic. The problem is Mark’s apparent silence in identifying Jesus as the Son of David. Botner observes that, since Wrede, scholarship has had …
An End to the Silence
This article discusses a misuse of the argument from silence to deny historical detail in New Testament study. It starts with a description of the argument from silence and its misuse, followed with an example to show its fallacious nature. Then it outlines two specific case studies of the misuse with respect to studies of 1 Thessalonians: the existence of Jews and a synagogue in Thessalonica, and the supposed non-Pauline interpolation of 1 Thess…
And 2 Thessalonians. Zondervan Critical Introductions to the New Testament 13
Nijay Gupta has done a service to all those teaching and researching Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians. His critical introduction to 1 and 2 Thessalonians fits well into Zondervan’s new series (under the editorial oversight of Michael F. Bird).Gupta treats each letter independently so the work is split into two parts. However, each part is structured similarly as they outline and critique the views of the secondary literature. The material is g…
First and Second Thessalonians
Nathan Eubank’s commentary on 1 and 2 Thessalonians is a welcome contribution to the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture series. It ably meets the series goals of a scholarly work based on a historical literary method that is informed by prayerful theological reflection. Its clarity of expression ensures that its target readership (those engaged in or training for pastoral ministry, and others interested in studying Scripture) will benefit fr…
The Hope of Israel
Brandon Crowe’s book, The Hope of Israel: The Resurrection of Christ in the Acts of the Apostles, is a thorough exploration and discussion of the theological implications of the theme of the resurrection in Acts. Crowe’s main thesis is that the resurrection is central to the apostles’ preaching and as such provides a unifying theme for the theology of Acts.The book is split into two main parts, each with four chapters. The first part sets the con…
Philo of Alexandria
As the Professor of Jewish Thought at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Maren Niehoff has carefully studied Philo of Alexandria for many years and is well suited to contribute this volume to the Anchor Yale Bible Reference Library. At the encouragement of John J. Collins, Niehoff has written this full-length biography of Philo, addressing a significant deficiency in the scholarship. Apart from the present volume, there is very little written by…
Gospel Interpretation and the Q-Hypothesis
This collection of essays is the fruit of the second meeting of a group investigating “Narrative Transformation as Theological Interpretation of the Gospels.” The proceeds of its first meeting were also published in the Library of New Testament Studies as volume 550 under the title Luke’s Literary Creativity. The second volume is the proceeds of the conference Gospel Interpretation and the Q Hypothesis held in Denmark in 2015.The volume contains …
The Fourth Gospel and the Apostolic Mission
This article seeks to redress the imbalance of seeing John’s theology as distinctive and dissimilar to the other Gospels and New Testament documents by observing the essential consistency between the theology of the Fourth Gospel and the apostolic mission described by Paul in Galatians 2:1–10. First, it considers the origin of the New Testament documents in the mission of the apostles described in Galatians 2:1–10 and locates the apostles’ common…
