About 1 Peter
Product Description Identifying the theme of 1 Peter as how the church is to witness responsibly in a non-Christian world, Boring emphasizes the necessity of a sympathetic historical understanding of those parts of the letter that collide with modern cultural values and understandings of what Christian commitment and theology require. He gives special attention, as well, to the narrative world within which this ancient writer operated, and to the strong affirmation of ecumenism implicit in the letter's amalgamation of traditions stemming from Peter and Paul, respectively. About the Author M. Eugene Boring is I Wylie and Elizabeth M. Briscoe professor of New Testament (Emeritus) at Brite Divinity School of Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, Texas, and author of books on biblical scholarship.
