A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

John Drane's 'Introducing the New Testament' has long been recognized as probably the most authoritative and accessible survey of the subject, both for students and for general readers. This classic work has been revised and updated, taking full account of recent scholarly developments and archaeological findings. These include areas such as the historical Jesus, the theologies of the four Gospels, and the role of St Paul in the transformation of Christianity from a first century Jewish sect into a separate movement that was to spread throughout the world. This authoritative text has now been further enhanced by the introduction throughout of full colour illustrations and photographs, maps and diagrams. Praise for the 2nd Edition: 'This book has arguably been the most useful and user-friendly non-technical introduction to the New Testament available.' - David Wenham, Tutor in New Testament, Wycliffe Hall, Oxford
