A long-awaited abridgement of Raymond Brown's classic and
best-selling introduction to the New Testament Since its
publication in 1997, Raymond Brown's Introduction to the New
Testament has been widely embraced by modern readers seeking to
understand the Christian Bible. Acknowledged as a paragon of New
Testament studies in his lifetime, Brown was a gifted communicator
who wrote with ease and clarity. Abridged by Marion Soards, who
worked with Brown on the original text, this new, concise version
maintains the essence and centrist interpretation of the original
without tampering with Brown's perspective, insights, or
conclusions. The biblical writings themselves remain the focus, but
there are also chapters dealing with the nature, origin, and
interpretation of the New Testament texts, as well as chapters
concerning the political, social, religious, and philosophical
world of antiquity. Furthermore, augmenting Brown's commentary on
the New Testament itself are topics such as the Gospels'
relationship to one another; the form and function of ancient
letters; Paul's thought and life, along with his motivation,
legacy, and theology; a reflection on the historical Jesus; and a
survey of relevant Jewish and Christian writings. This
comprehensive, reliable, and authoritative guidebook is now more
accessible for novices, general readers, Bible study groups,
ministers, scholars, and students alike.
