  Additional Info
  Although healing constitutes both a major theme of biblical literature and a significant practice of biblical communities, healing themes and experiences are not always conspicuous in presentations of biblical theology. Walter T. Wilson adopts an interdisciplinary approach to the healing narratives in the Gospel of Matthew, combining the familiar methods of form, redaction, and narrative criticisms with insights culled from medical anthropology, feminist theory, disability studies, and ancient archaeology. His focus is the New Testament’s longest and most systematic account of healing, Matthew chapters 8 and 9, which he investigates by situating the text within a broad range of ancient healing traditions. The close exegetical readings of each healing narrative culminate in a final synthesis that pulls together what can be said about Matthew’s understanding of healing, how Matthew’s narratives of healing expose the distinctive priorities of the evangelist, and how these priorities relate to the theology of the Gospel as a whole.

  Pauline Parallels : A Comprehensive Guide

  $57.00

  The collection of Pauls letters to the churches of his day form one of the largest and most theologically rich parts of the New Testament. Wilson compares passages from each of Pauls letters including the Pastoral Epistles with a broad spectrum of ancient literature. Not only are parallels drawn among the Pauline letters, but with New Testament and Old Testament writings, early Jewish literature including the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the philosophical and religious works of Greece and Rome. With this wide scope of comparisons, Pauline Parallels: A Comprehensive Guide is the most complete literary and structural assessment of Pauls writings to date, and is sure to be an invaluable resource for students of the New Testament for years to come.
