Reading the Later New Testament as Christian Scripture A Literary, Canonical, and Theological Introduction Ruth Anne Reese and Madison N. Pierce READING CHRISTIAN SCRIPTURE This accessible survey textbook, the most current and comprehensive intro- duction to Hebrews through Revelation in more than a decade, explores the Later New Testament in its literary, canonical, and theological contexts. The authors’ approach is rooted in the conviction that these texts deserve to be read as Scripture—not merely as historical artifacts but as living witnesses whose theological contributions to the canon are irreplaceable. “ Reading the Later New Testament as Christian Scripture addresses the dearth of material on these fascinating letters and orients students to the unique and influential contributions they make to Christian belief and practice. With attention to contemporary issues, maps, explanatory sidebars, and striking art, this book positions readers well to comprehend and experience the impact these texts make on their lives. I’m eager to recommend this work to those who already love these letters and also to those who don’t, yet!” —Amy Peeler, Wheaton College “This is a pleasing-to-the-eye book—not too many words on a page, with lots of color and sidebars and graphs and charts and photographs.” —Scot McKnight, Scot’s Newsletter , Substack
