Synopsis: Studying the New Testament requires a determination to
encounter this collection of writings on its own terms. This
classic introduction by Charles B. Puskas, revised with C. Michael
Robbins, provides helpful guidance. Since the publication of the
first edition, which was in print for twenty years, a host of new
and diverse cultural, historical, social-scientific,
socio-rhetorical, narrative, textual, and contextual studies has
been examined. Attentive also to the positive reviews of the first
edition, the authors retain the original tripartite arrangement on
1) the world of the New Testament, 2) interpreting the New
Testament, and 3) Jesus and early Christianity. This volume
supplies readers with pertinent primary and secondary material. The
new edition carries on a genuine effort to be nonsectarian, and
although it is more of a critical introduction than a general
survey, it is recommended to midlevel college and seminary students
and to anyone who wants to be better informed about the New
Testament. Endorsement: "This second edition of An Introduction to
the New Testament by Puskas and Robbins is a literarily sensitive,
historically oriented volume. It provides a framework to the New
Testament that will help readers appreciate the complex world out
of which the New Testament arose and gain an understanding of what
is involved in the exegesis of New Testament texts today. I
recommend this text for use in undergraduate and seminary classes
that offer an academic approach to the New Testament." --Mark
