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 survey textbook offers an accessible introduction to the Later New Testament in its literary, canonical, and theological contexts. Unlike other portions of the New Testament such as Paul’s Letters or the Gos - pels, introductions to the Later New Testament (Hebrews through Revelation) are uncommon. These texts have been relatively neglected in the history of Christian interpretation. Reading the Later New Testament as Christian Scripture offers the most up-to-date introduction to these texts in more than a decade. This textbook is grounded in the view that the Later New Testament should be read as Christian Scripture. Although the book covers critical issues such as authorship, background, and history, its primary focus is on the message and theology of the Later New Testament and the contribution these texts make to the Christian canon. Reading Christian Scripture is a series of survey textbooks that cover the Old and New Testaments. They are beautifully designed in full color with maps, sidebars, images, and illustrations to hold interest and aid learning.
