The Ethics of Lament
One of the most important sets of texts for the church is the Passion narrative. A question of particular interest is the message behind Jesus’s words upon the cross: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” By considering the shape and theology of Ps 22 as a lament, the reader becomes aware of the parallels between this psalm and Jesus’s crucifixion. These shared theological arcs give an intimate look into the death of Jesus and following his…
Between History and Spirit
The hermeneutical triad is best described as the process of assessing a text’s history, literary merit, and theology. The careful reader will examine each of these areas in order to assess the text’s meaning. In Between History and Spirit: The Apostolic Witness of the Books of Acts, Craig Keener takes the reader to the very heart of the book of Acts by cross-examining its history, context, and theology. Keener is no stranger to Acts scholarship, …
Configuring Nicodemus
Configuring Nicodemus: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Complex Characterization is the newest addition to Johannine character studies. In this volume, Michael R. Whitenton, lecturer in the Baylor Interdisciplinary Core at Baylor University, examines the figure of Nicodemus. Combining insights from ancient rhetoric, biblical studies, and modern cognitive science, Whitenton makes a compelling case for seeing Nicodemus as a model of discipleship wh…
Reading Mark’s Gospel as a Text From Collective Memory
Sandra Huebenthal is professor of exegesis and biblical theology at the University of Passau, Lower Bavaria, Germany. She is an expert in the application of social memory theory and its use in biblical studies. It is with this expertise that she explores Mark’s Gospel. More specifically, Huebenthal asks of Mark’s text what can be gleamed with regard to social memory theory and the aurality of the text. She states, “this study aims to read Mark’s …
The New Testament in Comparison
From start to finish, The New Testament in Comparison: Validity, Method, and Purpose in Comparing Traditions, is precisely the type of compilation that makes for interesting reading. Helpful for NT scholars, students, and those interested in comparative literature, the following volume began as conference papers for an NT symposium in Durham, UK, in June 2017. The subject of the conference was the exercise of comparison in relation to NT studies.…
The Sevenfold Form of the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew’s Gospel Revisited
Commentators on the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew’s Gospel have long admired its well-crafted liturgical poetry. The prayer is concisely and carefully worded and has a discernible structure. A number of recent studies of the prayer have noted the shape of the prayer and settled on a six-petition/two-halves model. In view of this and of recent interest in how form effects meaning, it seems appropriate to revisit the important issues and to suggest some…
Exalted Above the Heavens
Peter C. Orr is lecturer in New Testament at Moore College, Sydney, Australia. In his new book, Orr attends to what he considers a neglected topic in NT studies—the ascension and exaltation of Christ. Portions of the text are new material, while other parts are condensed versions of Orr’s earlier work in Christ Absent and Present published by Mohr Siebeck in WUNT. It is important to note that Orr is not examining the ascension as simply a past ev…
Ephesian Women in Greco-Roman and Early Christian Perspective
Elif Hilal Karaman is Research Associate in the Department of History of Religions at Dokuz Eylül University in Izmir, Turkey. She is part of a growing community of scholars who are seeking to bring female voices and perspectives to the study of the ancient world, NT, and archeology. In this regard, Karaman seeks to examine the different roles of women in Greco-Roman and Christian worlds and to discuss the presentations and changing perceptions o…
Restricted Generosity in the New Testament
In a revised form of his dissertation at the University of Nottingham under Professor Roland Deines, Dr. Timothy Murray contributes the following volume to the growing field of NT wealth ethics. Specifically, Murray is concerned with when, how, and why the first Christians restricted their material generosity. The focus on restriction is a novelty among studies of NT wealth ethics. The argument of the book is arranged around two parts that are fu…
Colossians and Philemon, The Letter to the Colossians and Der Brief des Paulus an die Kolosser
For those looking to deepen their understanding of the letter to the Colossians (and Philemon, in the case of Beale’s commentary), the scholarly choices are looking bright. As the following review will evidence, studies in Colossians are on the rise. Members of the academic world are no strangers to the authors of the following volumes. G. K. Beale holds the J. Gresham Machen chair of New Testament at Westminster Theological Seminary, Glenside, P…
The Logic of Matthew 6.19–7.12
In Sermon studies and their discussion of structure, scholars disagree on how to understand the latter half of the Sermon on the Mount (Matt 6.19–7.12). This section breaks the almost seamless structure of the first half of the Sermon (5.17–6.18). In what follows, I will argue that the latter half of the Sermon displays more structure than is generally acknowledged by Graham Stanton and others and gives us key insights into the overall message of…
