Lockett's insightful examination of the historical-critical issues that pertain to James, 1-2 Peter, and Jude is augmented with an illuminating exploration of new methodological approaches that have been appropriated in the study of the Catholic Epistles. What may be the most stimulating feature of this book is Lockett's discussion regarding the canonical shaping and function of these texts.  A new generation of students will benefit greatly from this well-informed appraisal of Catholic Epistles scholarship. - Kelly D. Liebengood, LeTourneau University, USA. -- Kelly D. Liebengood\u003cbr\u003e‘Throughout  the history of modern New Testament scholarship the Catholic Epistles have been  the most neglected part of the New Testament canon, and this remains the case  today despite some excellent recent work on them. Many students probably learn  little about them. Darian Lockett's book will certainly help to remedy this  situation. It is accessible to students and to a wider interested readership  and opens up for them the scholarship on these books in a lucid and  comprehensive way. He deals not only with the usual introductory questions and  the standard historical critical studies, but also with the contributions of  the newer methodologies: social scientific criticism, narrative criticism and  canonical criticism. He considers the Catholic Epistles not only as individual  texts, but also as forming a canonical collection. On the many disputed issues,  he sets out the various arguments, leaving readers to reach their own  conclusions. He presents the material in a way that will spark readers'  interest and stimulate them to engage with the Catholic Epistles for  themselves.' - Richard Bauckham, UK. -- Richard Bauckham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat are the Catholic Epistles?; James; 1 Peter; Jude; 2 Peter; Thematic; Theological connections in the CE; The Catholic Epistles in the Shadow of Paul?","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51862741909847,"sku":"9780567171771","price":29.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780567171771.jpg?v=1759918625","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/anintroduction-to-the-catholic-epistles-by-lockett-darian-author-on-nov172011-paperback-9780567171771","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
