More about the book
The collection features seminal essays that analyze papyri and inscriptions to explore the language and literature of Hellenistic Judaism and early Christianity. A key highlight is Deissmann's distinction between letters and epistles, along with his critique of the idea that biblical Greek was a sacred language. He compellingly argues that biblical Greek is actually vernacular Greek, providing valuable insights into its use and significance within its historical context.
