Description

This scholarly collection examines magic in the New Testament and its religious context through contributions from distinguished experts. The volume opens with foundational hermeneutics of magic, exploring how magic is understood across different world-views including Western and African perspectives. The second section focuses on Jesus and magic, analysing the term's usage throughout the New Testament with particular attention to Acts. The third section extends understanding through targeted case studies employing varied methodological approaches, offering comprehensive insight into how early Christian texts engaged with magical practices and terminology in their historical environment. Part of the Library of New Testament Studies series (volume 306), this work published by Bloomsbury provides essential reference material for scholars, theologians and students examining the intersection of early Christianity and magic in antiquity.

Key Features

The collection addresses foundational questions about the nature of magic and its interpretation across Western and African cultural frameworks.

Jesus and magic form the central focus of the second part, with detailed examination of how the New Testament uses the term magic.

Acts receives particular scholarly attention for its specific treatment of magic terminology and related practices.

The third section employs multiple methodological approaches through selected case studies to deepen understanding of magic in context.

Published by Bloomsbury as volume 306 in the Library of New Testament Studies series, providing authoritative academic reference material.
