  • Mark's Gospelby John Painter

    Taylor and Francis 1997; US$ 39.95

    Mark's 'biography' of Jesus is the earliest of the four gospels, and influenced them all. The distinctive feature of this biography is the quality of 'good news', which presupposes a world dominated by the forces of evil. John Painter shows how the rhetorical and dramatic shaping of the book emphasises the conflict of good and evil at many levels -... more...

    Baylor University Press 2003; US$ 49.95

    In Houses of the Interpreter, David Lyle Jeffrey explores the terrain of the cultural history of biblical interpretation.

Instead, he chooses to focus upon the ''art'' of Biblical interpretation --how sculptors, musicians,... more...

  • The Sermon on the Mountby Carl Vaught

    Baylor University Press 2001; US$ 29.95

    This revised edition of Vaught's theological investigation of the Sermon on the Mount begins with the assumption that the text cannot be understood apart from a transformation of the human spirit.
