<br/><br/> In this classic work, Wayne A. Meeks analyzes the earliest extant documents of Christianity―the letters of Paul―to describe the tensions and the texture of life of the first urban Christians. In a new introduction, he describes the evolution of the field of New Testament scholarship over the past twenty years, including new developments in fields such as archaeology and social history.
