Studying the New Testament through Inscriptions : An Introduction

Burnett, D. Clint - Nama Orang;

Outline : When we study the New Testament, we can't help feeling the vast distance between us and the biblical writers. We live in worlds separated by two thousand years, thousands of miles, and huge cultural differences - one of which is the ancient byt common use of inscriptions. Although inscriptions are mentioned in each of the Gospels, the books of Acts, Revelation, and more, the biblical writers didn't provide a framework for how we are to interpret these today. Studying the New Testament through Inscriptions bridges this chronological and cultural gap by making inscriptions accessible to us. Whether you are a seminarian, graduate student, or pastor, after reading this book you'll be able to add inscriptions to your interpretive toolbox, and thereby become a more complete student of the New Testament. Inscriptions allow for a fuller portrait of life in the early Roman Empire, providing windows into the values, thoughts, and beliefs of individuals, particularly those who are not considered "the elite" - that is, artisans, slaves, and women. They also showcase localized religion, politics, culture, and ideologies, helping contextualize certain New Testament texts and events in early Christianity in ways literary texts cannot. This book both introduces inscriptions and demonstrates the sound methodological use of them in the study of the New Testament, highlighting the largely unrecognized ability of inscriptions to shed light on early Christian history, practice, and the leadership structure of early Christian churches. Those looking for a deeper understanding of early Christianity will find it in D. Clint Burnett's illuminating book.
