Deo titles byRobert W. Yarbrough
Robert W. Yarbrough NT scholarship since the Enlightenment is not quite like the histories tend to present it. It has not been the unfolding triumph of objective “critical” or “historical” thinkers over less progressive and dogmatically biased “theological” interests. Rather, in the same respective eras that “critical” thinkers like F.C. Baur, William Wrede, and Rudolf Bultmann mapped out approaches to NT theology, responsible scholars from J.C.K. von Hofmann to O. Cullmann have responded with viable programs of their own. This volume brings the ascendant Baur-Wrede-Bultmann line of analysis into dialogue with the “salvation-historical” perspective, uncovering a line of inquiry that was significant in the past and may prove promising in the future. A timely reassessment of 19th and 20th century NT scholarship. “In its attention both to detailed historical analysis as well as to the broader currents of intellectual history, this is, quite simply, a stunning monograph that is an invaluable contribution to the field of NT studies.” – Simon Gathercole, JSNT Robert W.
