"An accessible and attractive introduction to the New Testament"
Studying the New Testament can be an exciting--and intimidating--experience. This readable survey is designed to make the adventure less daunting and more rewarding.
Now in its fourth edition, this award-winning textbook takes into account the dramatic shift in the global Christian population. An accompanying website offers resources for students and professors.
"In almost thirty years of teaching introductory-level New Testament courses, I have found Encountering the New Testament to be a very accessible and readable text for my students. It is very well written and designed. I will continue to use this as my primary textbook. Enthusiastically recommended."
--Bob Bayles, Lee University
"Encountering the New Testament provides an accessible and attractive introduction to the New Testament. The well-arranged text, accompanied by stunning pictures and helpful charts, invites college students into the world of the New Testament. Professors will appreciate the book's organization and instructional aids. The excellent scholarship represented in this resource elevates it above similar works in the field."
--Andrew Marquez, Wayland Baptist University
"We have been using the various editions of Elwell and Yarbrough's Encountering the New Testament for many years, having appreciated from the outset the attention given not only to each New Testament book but also to necessarily related topics such as geography, geopolitical environment, archaeological discoveries, matters of scholarly criticism, and key theological themes--all with sensitivity to different streams of theological interpretation. The visuals, charts, and inset boxes with focus topics provide a rich learning environment that has worked admirably for our undergraduate students, and I note as well that the text can aid even seminary students as they lay the initial groundwork for advanced study. The authors' awareness of globalized Christianity, especially apparent in this fourth edition, along with electronic support materials, all render this updated edition a welcome development for students open to a holistic acquaintance with Christ's new covenant."
