Lovely copy of this apparently uncommon biblical study, 200 pages in blue cloth with gilt lettering, no DJ as issued. Binding is solid, tight, sturdy, square. Interior is bright, clean, white, free of any marks or damage of any kind. Front board has one prominent scuff mark running vertically and a couple of much fainter and smaller ones on the back panel. All told a very crisp copy that appears unread.

The Apostle Paul expected the vast majority of the recipients of his letters to hear, not read, them. He structured his compositions for the ear rather than the eye. Pauline audiences would hear clues to meaning and structure because they had learned to communicate in a world where those clues were essential to understanding. Recognizable structures and patterns were essential for listeners to organize what they heard, to follow, to predict and to remember the flow of communication. Oral Biblical Criticism examines Paul's Epistle to the Philippians in light of recent study of oral principles of composition and interpretation.
