This study guide introduces students to the Book of Proverbs from
the Old Testament. Zoltán Schwáb examines the book's structure
and characteristics; covers the latest Biblical scholarship,
including historical and interpretive issues; and considers a range
of scholarly approaches from historical-critical through feminist
to theological. The guide encourages existential engagement with
Proverbs, and uses diverse tools in order to achieve this. A brief
chapter by chapter commentary on Proverbs will highlight the major
themes of each of its sections. The playful ambiguity and poetry of
the proverbs is also discussed. A special emphasis will be placed
on how different historical, literary, or performance contexts can
influence a proverb’s meaning. Finally, the guide presents an
overview of the rich heritage of African interpretation of
proverbs. With suggestions of further reading at the end of each
chapter, this guide will be an essential accompaniment to the study
of the Book of Proverbs.

Richard Bauckham's The Jewish World around the New Testament
explored various aspects of the significance of early Judaism for
interpreting the New Testament. Now The Christian World around the
New Testament brings together Bauckham's well-known work on Gospel
origins, early Christianity, and patristic literature in one
convenient volume. The book contains thirty-one studies that have
been published over Bauckham's distinguished career. This
affordable North American paperback by an internationally respected
New Testament scholar will be published simultaneously with the
prestigious European hardcover.
The book explores the antisemitic potential of Matthew's Gospel in
the Christian New Testament. It begins with a detailed discussion
of the occasion of the text, before discussing key questions
(Matthew's fulfilment theology, and the use of polemic in the
text). Three crucial texts are examined in detail. The book
discusses the reverberations of the "blood cry," arguing the
deicide-focused interpretation of Matthew 27:25 is foundational to
subsequent blood libels, which are also discussed. The final
chapters explore how to preach from Matthew's Gospel with Jewish
people in mind, including offering sample sermons to stimulate the
reader's thinking about how they might teach from a controversial
Matthean text in a way that denies the possibility of perpetuating
Christian antisemitism. It will be of interest to students and
scholars in religion and faith, Christianity, and interfaith
studies.
