The Making Of The New Testament (Edition1) by Benjamin Wisner Bacon
The making of the New Testament is a scholarly work that explores the history and formation of the New Testament, examining how its books were chosen and canonized into the Christian Bible. The text delves into the early Christian movement's resistance to rigid structures while ultimately forming the canon that shaped Christian doctrine. It emphasizes the significant roles of pivotal figures like Jesus and Paul, whose teachings helped move Christianity away from legalistic traditions and toward a new understanding of God s relationship with humanity. Through this exploration, the author addresses the challenges early Christians faced in determining which texts were considered authoritative. The opening presents a paradox between the early church s initial resistance to rigid canonization and the eventual need for formalized scripture. The work goes on to discuss how these writings, once viewed as transformative and liberating, became foundational texts for Christianity. By providing historical context and focusing on the cultural and theological shifts, the author offers a comprehensive look at how the New Testament came to be a guiding force in Christian faith and theology.| SKU | Unavailable |
