This commentary on Polycarp's Epistle to the Philippians and the
Martyrdom of Polycarp includes extensive introductions, the Greek
or Latin texts, facing English translations, and substantial
comments on each passage. The preliminary material investigates
Polycarpian traditions and reconstructs an outline of his life. The
introductory studies for both Philippians and the Martyrdom discuss
text and manuscript traditions, date and place of composition,
historical setting, literary genre and style, unity and integrity,
purpose and themes, theology, and post-composition influence. The
volume also explores communal self-definition, moral formation, and
the transmission of traditions, including the use of documents now
found in the New Testament. The commentary proceeds passage by
passage, but also includes lengthy discussions of critical issues
and key interpretive questions. The investigations survey the
current status of relevant scholarship and contain balanced
discussions of controversial topics and scholarly debates.
