Bøker av Eckhard J. Schnabel

"[A] magisterial volume"Eckhard Schnabel comprehensively combines a historical description of the theology of the New Testament with a systematic reflection on its message and the convictions of Jesus and his early followers."Those who read many volumes devoted to New Testament theology soon learn that there are highly varied and competing theories about what goes into New Testament theology. Ladd does not align with Kümmel, who does not align with Marshall, who does not align with Bultmann, who does not align with Vos, and so forth. What Schnabel offers is a tight interweaving of New Testament history with the theology that is interwoven with that history--a stimulating and creative mix that reflects vast knowledge and plausible integration."--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (emeritus)"Schnabel takes up the challenge of writing a theology of the New Testament and shows his comprehensive understanding of these writings in their historical settings. Particularly distinctive is Schnabel's lens of the New Testament as 'mission theology, ' a perspective already well-honed in his previous scholarship. New Testament Theology offers a thoroughgoing engagement with the New Testament documents from a seasoned scholar."--Jeannine K. Brown, Bethel Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota"Provoking and fundamental, this book is like a house built on the rock of the author's earlier monumental work, Early Christian Mission. Schnabel's solid historical research and sound evangelical conviction offer readers a reliable and fruitful reading of the theology of the New Testament. Here history and theology embrace each other in God's revelatory acts through Jesus the Messiah and the New Testaments writers' proclamations in their diverse missional and pastoral contexts. Readers will also find themselves engaging in the task of witnessing to the gospel in their diverse contexts. A perfect textbook."--Young S. Chae, Baekseok Seminary and Graduate School, Seoul, South Korea"Despite the array of works on New Testament theology today, Schnabel adds a distinctive voice with distinctive insights. Unrivaled in its deep historical perspective, this book also explores a range of issues arising inductively from the text that are often neglected in other New Testament theologies."--Craig S. Keener, Asbury Theological Seminary
