Reading 1-2 Peter and Jude: A Resource for Students
Informazioni su questo ebook
Scholars engage the best contemporary work on 1–2 Peter and Jude in this student-oriented book. The first four chapters in this collection—on authorship and pseudonymity, literary relationships among the three books, epistolary rhetoric, and apocalyptic elements—consider important, foundational issues related to all three epistles. These essays lay the groundwork for more focused chapters that examine theology and theory in 1 Peter as well a stylistic, theological, and thematic overlap in Jude and 2 Peter.
Features:
- A range of theological, literary, and theoretical approaches
- Definitions for specialized terminology
- Historical and cultural background information
- Explanations of methodologies
