Description

Understanding the New Testament requires stepping beyond modern perspectives to grasp the mindset of first-century audiences. This collection of essays from Routledge guides twentieth-century readers through the literal meaning and social context of the Gospels. Explore how first-century persons understood themselves and their world, discover whether they viewed Jesus as a charismatic leader, and learn why they invoked God as father. By reconstructing the social frameworks and cultural assumptions of the original audience, this book illuminates the deepest layers of New Testament interpretation. A used book in good condition, it offers scholars, students, and interested readers a practical framework for engaging with ancient texts on their own terms rather than through contemporary lenses.
