"How to Read the New Testament" offers an exciting and contemporary approach to the New Testament. Designed to help students think critically and in wide-ranging ways about the texts of the New Testament, it begins by analysing the issues surrounding the question of translation. James Crossley also considers historical questions, particularly that of the historical Jesus, the biblical past and interpretation and identity. He looks at religion and the bible, Christology, Judaism, and the role of Rome and the Emperor cult. The book investigates different ways of reading the Bible today, using frameworks of gender and class, colonialism and post-colonialism, politics and theology, autobiography and popular culture.
