Engaging Jesus with Our Senses An Embodied Approach to the Gospels Jeannine Marie Hanger Foreword by Grant Macaskill This book offers a fresh way to read the Gospels with an emphasis on embod- iment, helping us to connect our sensory experiences with those of ancient readers. “In this vivid and engaging yet well-researched book, utilizing recent shifts in scholarship, Hanger draws us into the rich sensory world of the Gospel narra- tives and encourages the use of all our senses in encountering the Word made flesh. An excellent resource for a fully embodied life of faith.” —John M. G. Barclay, Durham University “Hanger explores the intersection of the Gospels and sensory experience, building on scholarship from both arenas. The results are both thought- provoking and experientially rich.” —Jeannine K. Brown, Bethel Seminary

The Open Sanctuary Access to God and the Heavenly Temple in the New Testa- ment Nicholas J. Moore This examination of the heavenly temple in the New Testament within its Jew- ish and Greco-Roman contexts demonstrates that the ministry of Jesus gives believers access to the very dwelling place of God himself. “A marvelous, illuminating book that puts the idea of the heavenly sanctuary back where it belongs—at the heart of early Christian thought. This is an insight that has been gathering strength in recent years, but Moore presents the definitive case, and Hebrews is central to that case. A major contribution to our understanding of the message of that marginalized book.” —Philip Alexander, Centre for Jewish Studies, University of Manchester; Fellow of the British Academy “A tremendous resource for understanding a key concept in the first century.” —Madison N. Pierce, Western Theological Seminary
