New Testament exegesis

This indispensable, stimulating guide will assist students, seminarians, and pastors by providing a practical method for careful exegesis of the New Testament. It gives step-by-step analysis of the exegetical procedures, a brief guide to exegesis for sermon preparation, and resources for further study. Since the first edition was published, much has happened. The composition of the theological student body has changed, and the majority of students do not know Greek; an enormous amount of secondary literature has been produced; computer-aided research materials have burgeoned; and rhetorical criticism has become a significant presence in exegetical materials. This new volume reflects those changes and opens up new ways of hearing the New Testament. It offers many helpful insights into interpretation and can be used alone or as a companion to Douglas Stuart's Old Testament Exegesis. -- Back cover.
