Description

The question of the meaning and significance of baptism is explored from a number of different perspectives in this volume.

Inspired by the honoree of this volume and his important work on the subject, the contributors approach baptism from biblical, historical, theological and practical perspectives.

Some of the essays re-examine the well-known biblical texts, feeling free to probe their implications.

Others tease out the implications of the concept of baptism in a variety of contexts, both ancient and modern.

Contributors include Joel Green, Geoffrey Bromiley, Larry Kreitzer, John Nolland, Ramsey Michaels and J.D.G.

Dunn.
