About this title

Synopsis

Written by one of the foremost biblical scholars of his generation, this book is a lucid and intelligent introduction to the background, meaning and significance of the New Testament. While making full use of the 'tremendous scientific toil' (to use Davies's words) of modern biblical scholarship, this book is written for 'those in schools, colleges, churches, adult classes and every walk of life who have neither the time nor the guidance for detailed study of the New Testament, but who yet desire to grasp the central thrust of the foundation document of Christianity'. Out of print for a number of years, the re-issuing of this highly-regarded book will delight anyone who wishes to develop a better understanding of the primary documents of the Christian faith, and will serve the needs of teachers of the New Testament who have found it a sympathetic and congenial textbook for their introductory classes.
