While there are many commentaries written today, most have been
products of Euro-American scholars who have sought to address
questions and concerns of the western church. The New Covenant
Commentary Series (NCCS) has provided an opportunity for scholars
from the non-majority communities in Biblical Studies to engage
fully with NT writings without bracketing their diverse backgrounds
in the interpretive process. Consequently, in Andrew Mbuvi's
interpretation of Jude and 2 Peter, the author seeks to be faithful
in the first century Greco-Roman world setting of the letters while
also allowing aspects of his postcolonial, African, and liberation
theology interests to inform his hermeneutics. Mbuvi reads the
epistles within the context of first-century Greco-Roman
Associations since the communities of Jude and 2 Peter seem to
share significant commonalities with these groups. The 'Fusing
Horizons' sections address aspects of concern to the Church, with
inclination towards issues that have occupied the church outside of
the Western world (the Global South), home to the majority of
Christians today. Mbuvi's useful analysis shows that Jude's and 2
Peter's message remains as relevant today as when the letters were
written.
