Description
Book SynopsisFor half a century Leander Keck thought, taught, and wrote about the New Testament. He wrote a staggering number of now industry-standard articles on the New Testament. Here, they are all collected for the first time.
Trade ReviewStudents would do well to disciple themselves to Keckâs approach to his subject matter, which is characterized by unusual clarity, independence of judgment, and theological acuity. Pastors and teachers who work through this volume will find in Keck an exemplar of theological reasoning and close engagement with biblical texts. -- Joel B. Green -- Interpretation: A Journal of Bible and Theology
â¦Keckâs essays are solid reminders of important, ongoing debates between historical analysis and theological interpretation of the New Testament writings. -- Jeffrey S. Siker -- Horizons
