Studies in Matthew and Early Christianity (Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen Zum Neuen Testament)

Sinopse

Over the course of his distinguished career, the late Graham Stanton, former Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge, wrote extensively on New Testament and early Christian themes. This volume presents a collection of twenty-six essays, including one previously unpublished, and encompasses some of his most prominent contributions to scholarship. Toward the end of his life, Stanton was engaged in writing a book on Justin Martyr in the context of early Christian and Jewish dialogue. Though he did not live to complete the project, he published a number of preliminary studies that are also included in this volume, together with a previously unpublished paper investigating 'Justin on Martyrdom and Suicide'.
