Theology as History, History as Theology (eBook, PDF)

Paul in Ephesus in Acts 19

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This monograph explores the theology of the Acts of the Apostles while taking seriously the status of the writing as ancient historiography: What does it mean to speak of theology in a historiographical work? How can this theology be apprehended? What does this theology have to do with the overall character of the writing and with how the writing functioned for its original audience? Acts 19 is both, case study and source to generate the answers.
