Studies in Cultural Contexts of the Bible ; Volume 10
Inhalt:
This volume, edited by Sandra Huebenthal and others, explores the application of social memory theory to New Testament studies. It examines how cultural and social memory shape the interpretation of biblical texts and early Christian identity. The book includes essays that discuss the role of memory in the formation of religious texts, the impact of cultural contexts on biblical exegesis, and the use of pseudepigraphy in early Christian writings. The authors aim to provide new perspectives on how memory informs the narratives and identity constructions within the New Testament. This work is intended for scholars and students of biblical studies, cultural studies, and those interested in the intersection of memory and religious texts.
