Description

Discovering John Content, Interpretation, Reception by Ruth Edwards provides a comprehensive introduction to the interpretation of Matthew's Gospel. This revised and expanded edition offers a 'map' to the text, guiding readers through key interpreters and interpretative debates. By drawing on various methodological approaches, including author-, text- and readercentred perspectives, Edwards encourages in-depth study of the biblical text and genuine grappling with its theological and historical questions. The book reflects the growing scholarly attention to the reception history of biblical texts, highlighting their significance as a vital aspect of interpretation rather than an optional extra. This edition is part of the 'Discovering' series, which aims to facilitate nuanced understanding of key biblical texts. Suitable for those seeking to engage with the theological and historical complexities of Matthew's Gospel, this book offers a valuable resource for students and scholars alike.
