He confronts the question: What does the New Testament tell us about religions? And what is its approach to those who were Gentiles, and to their beliefs and practices? He focuses his attention on the evidence presented by the New Testament itself, and especially on the attitude of its writers to the religions of their times. Written by a scholar with over twenty years of experience in the South Asian context, this title makes a fine addition to the conversation and to the new Fortress Press efforts to bring South Asian scholarship to a wider readership.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Basil Scott</note> <subject> <topic>Christianity -- Relationships -- Biblical teaching</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">225.66</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B311-S42</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9781506438009</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/10/_5607305556_140.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/10/_5607305556_140.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070723.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
