Description
This first edition of The New Testament World: Insights from Cultural Anthropology explores the New Testament literature from the scientific perspective. Not a description of what and how New Testament people interacted but a description of why. A new model for understanding the New Testament. Malina's writing demonstrates the value of his approach to New Testament studies. The cultural anthropological context examines honor and shame, dyadic personality, limited good, marriage and kinship, the rules of clean and unclean. These aspects of life in the New Testament world serve as guides to understanding law, economics, healing, sin, and forgiveness. Malina offers students and teachers a set of tools and models highly useful in understanding the Bible. Includes charts, bibliography, index. - from Amzon
