Offers diverse views of specific New Testament texts
The first edition of Global Perspectives on the New Testament collects writings from a variety of geographic, social, cultural, political, economic, and religious viewpoints. The book’s four essays cover 22 New Testament texts. This produces a focused, dynamic “conversation” of perspectives. Readers will become more aware of their own context as they explore The Bible with interpreters from around the world.
MySearchLab is a part of the Roncace/Weaver program. Research and writing tools, including access to academic journals, help students explore the Bible in even greater depth. To provide students with flexibility, students can download the eText to a tablet using the free Pearson eText app.
