Reading First Peter with New Eyes

<br/> <em> </em> <br/> <em>Reading First Peter with New Eyes </em>is the second of four volumes that incorporate essays examining the impact of recent methodological advances in New Testament studies of the letters of James 1 and 2 Peter and Jude. It includes rhetorical social-scientific socio-rhetorical ideological and hermeneutical methods as they contribute to understanding First Peter and its social context. Each essay has a similar three-fold structure ideal for use by students: a description of the methodological approach; the application of the methodological approach to First Peter; and a conclusion identifying how the methodological approach contributes to a fresh understanding of the letter. <br/> <br/> <em>Reading First Peter with New Eyes </em>follows on from the first volume in the series <em>Reading James With New Eyes</em> edited by Robert L. Webb and John S. Kloppenborg. <br/>
