Hermeneutics of Mission in Matthew
ISBN: 9781783689095
£21.99
Matthew’s Gospel is pivotal in scholarly discussion on the hermeneutical use of the Old Testament in the New. Sarma proposes that Matthew utilizes the Old Testament as a book of promise of God’s salvific plan and that Jesus is the fulfillment of that promise. For Matthew, God’s purpose to save fallen humanity is the grand narrative of the Bible. Using promise-fulfillment as the interpretative...

Heralds and Community
ISBN: 9781783689019
£28.99
This book is part of an ongoing discussion in the scholarly community about Paul’s understanding of the relationship between his own mission and the church’s mission. While this study endorses some previous scholars who exegetically argue for Paul’s thorough silence about the church’s proactive evangelism in his letters, it argues that the explanations for such a silence cannot be adequately...

Paul’s Viewpoint on God, Israel, and the Gentiles in Romans 9–11
ISBN: 9781783680474
£24.99
Over the years Romans 9–11 has been investigated from a variety of approaches, with one of the most prominent being an intertextual reading.

This Is True Grace
ISBN: 9781783681846
£21.99
Sun investigates the coherence between the social behavioural instructions and the theological teachings found in 1 Peter. Engaging with the Balch-Elliott debate, she argues that the core question should not be whether Christians should separate from, or accommodate to, wider society, but whether their behaviour is consistent with their ultimate allegiance to God. Sun convincingly demonstrates...

The Perilous Sayings
ISBN: 9781783682409
£21.99
Dr Amos Winarto Oei brings fresh clarity and understanding of the antitheses of Jesus from the Sermon on the Mount.

Jesus’s Identification with the Marginalized and the Liminal
ISBN: 9781783684304
£21.99
The first-century Judaic understanding of the identity and nature of the Messiah has been a much-debated topic among biblical scholars and preachers alike. So too has the messianic identity and nature of Jesus himself. Deboch informs these debates with fresh evidence outside traditional references to miracles, and supernatural identifications by demons and God himself. This book brings...

Heaven and Earth in Luke-Acts
ISBN: 9781783683475
£24.99
Focusing on several key passages from the biblical canon, Gao analyses them in their Jewish, Greco-Roman and broader literary contexts to enhance our comprehension of the meaning of “heaven" and it’s significance for our worldview. Dr Gao also elucidates how heaven, as well as being part of reality, acts as a concept that points to the arrival of God’s eschatological kingdom on earth. This...
