Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
Review in International Review of Biblical Studies, vol. 54:2007/08 This edited book is a welcomed addition to the study of New Testament cosmology and is expected to serve both scholars and pastors as a helpful overview of the topic. -- ane Ryul Lee * Expository Times, September 2009 * This is not merely a collection of analyses of such things as just how many levels of heaven Paul may have thought there were (although such issues are not overlooked) but rather a refreshingly wide-ranging collection of essays that consistently and seriously engages with theological significance of the cosmological language used by the NT authors... I warmly recommend this book to anyone interested in the cosmology or the theology of the NT, and readers will discover in the end that neither of these subjects can in fact be treated in isolation from the other. -- Jonathan Moo * Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society, 2010 * ... detailed validation makes the volume a valuable resource for reference libraries. -- Casimir Bernas * Religious Studies Review, Vol. 35 No. 1, March 2009. * Read more...
