Any scholar or student\/pastor interested in social-scientific approaches to the biblical texts would want a copy. -- Mark T. Finney, University of Sheffield, UK * Proposal *\u003cbr\u003eThis commentary on the New Testament, from the perspective of social-identity theory, is welcome news indeed, providing unique insights into the actions and attitudes of the persons in the biblical narratives, and what motivates them to do what they do and say what they say. * BEN WITHERINGTON, Asbury Theological Seminary, USA *\u003cbr\u003eSocial-identity theory has established itself as a critical constellation of perspectives for understanding early Christian relationships between individuals and groups, intragroup dynamics such as leadership, and intergroup relations. This important volume not only sets out the methodology of applying social-identity theory to biblical texts with utmost clarity and purpose, but also offers a wide array of rich and engaging applications to New Testament texts. It deserves to be a ‘go-to’ volume for researchers and students in this area. * LOUISE LAWRENCE, University of Exeter, UK *\u003cbr\u003eAs the first of its kind, this volume provides concise commentaries on all New Testament books from an established social-psychological perspective. Whether or not one agrees with the details of interpretation offered in each chapter, the contributors show the potential of the social-identity approach in highlighting the dynamics of identity formation in the New Testament writings, while also creating new opportunities for critical and constructive interpretation of the New Testament in search for present expressions of Christian identity. This is crucial reading for all who look for more secure footing in the midst of loose identity talk that often surfaces in early Jewish and Christian studies * PETRI T. J. LUOMANEN, University of Helsinki, Finland *\u003cbr\u003eThe breadth and diversity, as well as the interdisciplinary nature of the respective readings, illuminates the identity formation processes in the earliest Christ-movement. It is a bold endeavour to cover all the New Testament writings in one volume, but the editors and contributors must be congratulated for holding together the diversity of approaches in relation to the diversity of the original texts. They present an exceedingly valuable compendium for students and scholars alike. * KATHY EHRENSPERGER, University of Potsdam, Germany *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEditor's Preface  List of Abbreviations \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eList of Contributors\u003c\/b\u003e    \u003cb\u003e Introduction: How to use the SICNT - J.
