Abstract:
Challenge to orthodoxy -- The New Testament and history -- What the New Testament says and what it means -- Jesus and the gospel -- Greeks and Christians -- Re-enter theology -- The gospel behind the gospels -- Salvation is of the Jews -- History and
theology.

To bring this widely acclaimed book completely up to date, the late Bishop Neill's colleague N.T. Wright has revised and expanded the entire contents and added a new chapter covering New Testament scholarship of the last twenty-five years. This masterful survey describes the historical development of New Testament criticism, the contrasting personalities of scholars, and the permanent contributions made by various schools, ending with an assessment of the current status of the field.
