With fresh commentary on the social world and rhetorical criticism, and special focus on the contributions of the Philippian house churches to Paul's work and early Christian mission, Reumann clarifies Paul's attitudes toward and interactions with the Philippians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeparting from traditional readings of Philippians in light of Acts, Reumann allows Paul to speak in his own right. His three letters from Ephesus shed new light on relationships, and we come to see how he approves some aspects of the dominant \"culture of friendship\" in Greco-Roman Philippi while disapproving others. He seeks to help the Philippians discern how to be citizens of the heavenly kingdom and also Caesar's state, though there is an undercurrent of \"Christ vs. Caesar.\" Scholars, students, and general readers alike will find much of interest in John Reumann's deeply researched and insightful new volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Reumann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300140452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300140453\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 808\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.42h x 6.54w x 1.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronicle of Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/13\/2009 pg. 20","brand":"John Reumann","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072608104703,"sku":"9780300140453","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d9964972-c602-433c-988c-937ad7d569d9.jpg?v=1685442988","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philippians-john-reumann-9780300140453","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
