He explains how each New Testament writer's encounter with Christ changed not only his worldview, but also his understanding of moral living. But in contrast to much of contemporary scholarship, Witherington believes the New Testament writers are not writing conflicting or competing theologies. He suggests they are different voices singing the same chorus. Witherington explores historical and ideological perspectives as they influence our apprehension of the New Testament. This text does not provide a list of legalistic moral commands to follow, but it does provide insight on controversial subjects, such as divorce, homosexuality and gender roles.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Ben Witherington III</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- New Testament -- Criticism, interpretation, etc</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">225.6</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B456-I25</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780830838622</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2021/12/10/47463.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2021/12/10/47463.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2021-1</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070421.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
