Kuecker Co-Edits Book on New Testament Social Commentary
The 91精选 community gathered last week in the Grand Lobby to celebrate Provost Aaron Kuecker, Ph.D., on the recent release of . Kuecker co-edited the book with Brian Tucker and contributed two chapters.
The book, published by T&T Clark, is a comprehensive Bible resource that highlights the way the New Testament seeks to form the social identity of the members of the earliest Christ-movement. According to the publisher, “By drawing on the interpretive resources of social-scientific theories-especially those related to the formation of identity-interpreters generate new questions that open fruitful identity-related avenues into the text. It provides helpful introductions to each [New Testament] book that focus on various social dimensions of the text as well as a commentary structure that illuminates the text as a work of social influence.”
Along with his editing work, Kuecker wrote the book’s chapters on Luke and Acts.
