Summary
"The study of the Deutero-Pauline letter to the Ephesians in the New Testament has typically focused on ecclesiology by assuming a generalized notion of church. In contrast, in this interdisciplinary volume the contributors delve into an array of underlying subjects in order to give the terms governing our understanding of Ephesians a much-needed further specificity and an enlarged foundation. Highly attuned to questions of social location, space and urban setting, philosophy, epistolography, and ancient Judaism(s), these essays set the agenda for an improved reading of Ephesians and enhance exegetical analysis in New Testament studies."-- Publisher, inside front flap of dust jacket.
Note
"The greater part of this volume consists of a selection of papers delivered at the conference [an international and interdisciplinary workshop which was held at the Martin Luther University in Halle-Wittenberg]. These papers appear here in revised form." -- See, "Acknowledgments", page [v]
Bibliography, etc. Note
Includes bibliographical references (pages [417]-466) and indexes.
