Description

This book is the first of two volumes arguing that kingdom ethics is the core substance of the message of the historical Jesus.

Paul and Matthew were influential voices in formative Christianity.

Some prominent exegetes have tended to contrast Jesus and Paul, as well as Paul and Matthew.

This volume demonstrates that Jesus' kingdom ethics-based on divine wisdom, mercy and justice-originated in Stoic philosophy, and that it became a popular ethos of the first-century Graeco-Roman world.

This common transformative ethos of crossing conventional boundaries regarding patriarchy, gender injustice and bigotry based on class and sexuality was articulated differently by Jesus, Paul and Matthew.

The book will appeal to specialists in the fields of New Testament scholarship and ancient Graeco-Roman and Hellenistic-Semitic literature.
