Description: |
Drawing on a wealth of social-science scholarship, Malina and Pilch provide unprecedented insight into Acts as a document of the fourth generation of the Jesus movement, and the third generation of Pauline Christianity. Like earlier volumes in the Social Science Commentary series, this volume situates Acts squarely in the cultural matrix of the first century Mediterranean world, elaborating its codes of patron and client, mediatorship, honour and shame, healing and sickening, wizardry and witchcraft accusations, and the understanding of the Spirit of God as well as deities and demons as personal causes of significant events. |
