The words, phrases, and stories of the New Testament permeate the English language. Indeed, this relatively small group of twenty-seven works, written during the height of the Roman Empire, not only helped create and sustain a vast world religion, but also have been integral to the larger cultural dynamics of the West, above and beyond particular religious expressions. Looking at the New Testament through the lens of literary study, Kyle Keefer offers an engrossing exploration of this revered religious text as a work of literature, but also keeps in focus its theological ramifications. Unique among books that examine the Bible as literature, this brilliantly compact introduction offers an intriguing double-edged look at this universal text--a religiously informed literary analysis. The book first explores the major sections of the New Testament--the gospels, Paul's letters, and Revelation--as individual literary documents. Keefer shows how, in such familiar stories as the parable of the Good Samaritan, a literary analysis can uncover an unexpected complexity to what seems a simple, straightforward tale. At the conclusion of the book, Keefer steps back and asks questions about the New Testament as a whole. He reveals that whether read as a single document or as a collection of works, the New Testament presents readers with a wide variety of forms and viewpoints, and a literary exploration helps bring this richness to light. A fascinating investigation of the New Testament as a classic literary work, this Very Short Introduction uses a literary framework--plot, character, narrative arc, genre--to illuminate the language, structure, and the crafting of this venerable text. About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

How are the New Testament writings related to ancient literature? To what degree are literary forms and genres of the non-Christian tradition taken up and reworked in the New Testament, and to what extent can we speak of genuine Christian literary genres? In this magisterial work, available for the first time in an English language edition, Georg Strecker deals with issues related to the New Testament as literature. He notes that literary concepts and structures for the interpretation of the New Testament are often used in ways that are confusing, or that indiscriminately combine them in research. Descriptions of many of these new methodologies are provided and their significance for research is assessed and dealt with critically. The book begins with an examination of the development and task of the history of New Testament literature, including its relationship to Greco-Roman literature. Then follows a brief section on the text and language of the New Testament. Next Strecker offers a survey of the New Testament letters as a literary genre in the ancient world, followed by an extensive section on the Gospels, their literary sources (including the sayings-source Q), apophthegms, paradigms, and chreias, and the significance of rhetoric for interpreting the Gospels. Concluding sections deal with Acts and the Johannine apocalypse, together with an Epilogue on the canon of the new Testament. George Strecker was for many years Professor of New Testament in the Theological faculty at the University of Gottingen, Germany.
