Overview

The Studies of the New Testament and Its World series reflects a serious examination of the concerns and topics surrounding the first-century Christians and early Christian writings. In this series, the authors establish a firm foothold in early church studies with impactful research on such topics as Christian identity formation, the social background of the ancient world, Paul’s cosmology, and the early church’s use of baptism. Seminary students will find these scholarly and well-researched books challenging and thought-provoking, as will pastors and lay-persons interested in early Christianity.

With very recent studies and top scholarship in the field of ancient Christianity, this collection plugs you into the world of the earliest Christian writers and their audiences. See how the New Testament interrupted the world around it by studying the social and rhetorical lenses through which the New Testament and early theology was received.
