The New Testament In Its World: An Introduction to the History, Literature and Theology of the First Christians.

By Jessica Morris

In this comprehensive DVD set, acclaimed biblical professor N.T. Wright and Ridley College’s Michael Bird take us into the wonderfully complex world of the New Testament.

The New Testament In Its World: An Introduction to the History, Literature and Theology of the First Christians consists of 37 video lectures (13 hours of content) to introduce you to the historical, literary, biographical and cultural realities of the Gospels and the Early Church.

Designed as a solo resource, or accompanied with the written book and workbook, the DVD boasts images of the original locations, which add colour to the intensely detailed and convoluted lectures. A valuable resource, but only if the audience is willing to have their mind, spirit and perseverance stretched by university-level paradigms.

Available at Koorong stores and koorong.com.au.
