To Advance the Gospel: New Testament Studies (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780802844255)

In this greatly expanded edition of To Advance the Gospel, Joseph Fitzmyer has added eight new studies of Pauline and Lucan topics not part of his original work. Together these nineteen essays consider a number of major issues in the study of the New Testament as well as in the life of the church today. Readers will find discussions of such themes as the priority of Mark and the "Q" source in Luke, crucifixion in ancient Palestine, the gospel in the theology of Paul, and the in-depth explorations of the ascension of Christ, his resurrection, and the meaning of Pentecost.
