Jesus, Paul, and the Early Church
Missionary Realities in Historical Contexts. Collected Essays
by Eckhard J. Schnabel
This volume contains seventeen essays written by Eckhard J. Schnabel, written over the past 25 years.

Specific subjects discussed include Jesus’ silence at his trial, the introduction of foreign deities to Athens, the understanding of Rom 12:1, Paul’s ethics, the meaning of baptizein, the realities of persecution, Christian identity and mission in Revelation, and singing and instrumental music in the early church.
