Ethics in Contexts: Essays in Honor of Wendell Lee Willis

The essays in this volume are an expression of appreciation of Wendell Lee Willis who recently retired after a distinguished career as a classroom teacher colleague and scholar. Current and former colleagues have written to advance Wendells research interests in the various contexts of early Christianity particularly in the apostle Paul New Testament ethics and ecclesiology. Essays include discussions of issues related to Pauls correspondence with the church in Corinth and the depiction of Paul in Acts Jesuss parables meals and the religious and socio-political world in which Christianity arose.
