Book Reviews of New Testament History
Book Review: Good Oversight
Summary: 4 Stars
There is of course some disagreement about hermeneutics. How much do we need to know the back-story? Did God really intend to keep the meaning of the text hidden until archaeologists could unlock some secrets for us?
I'm inclined to say that the history is not vital to understanding, but it does add a richness to both understanding and teaching. We used this book in my New Testament I class and I found it to be quite helpful to bringing first-century Palestine to life.
Summary of New Testament History
God's authoritative message in the New Testament is applicable in every age and is best understood when studied in relation to its historical context. Richard L. Niswonger presents the major events of the life and ministry of Jesus, the missionary work of Paul, and the building of the apostolic church. He does this by introducing the reader to the historical, religious, and political setting of the New Testament and recounting the events with simplicity and directness. The book has more than ninety photographs and maps.Church History Books
