There is no denying, writes Allen Verhey, that churches today are
called to discern the shape and style of life "worth of the gospel
of Christ" in the twentieth century. Even in the face of changing
situations and new moral problems to address, the contemporary
church stands self-consciously in a tradition of which the New
testament is a normative part. In this major new study of New
Testament ethics, Verhey examines first of all the ethic of Jesus,
for it is there that the tradition begins. He then analyzes the
different forms in which the early church handed down the memory of
Jesus' words and deeds in the development of a moral tradition.
Next he deals with that tradition as it came to canonical
expression in the New Testament writings. In the last part of the
book Verhey focuses on the use of the New Testament in the
continuing moral tradition of the church, surveying proposals for
the use of Scripture, identifying the critical methodological
questions, and defending a "modest proposal" for the use of
Scripture.
