Seek the Welfare of the City: Christians as Benefactors and Citizens (First-Century Christians in the Graeco-Roman World)
Book details
Summary
Description
In attempting to understand the role of early Christians in the Graeco-Roman world, New Testament scholars have not sufficiently appreciated the significance of the expansive term politeia, minimizing our understanding of the function of Christians in the public place. In this first volume of a series titled First-Century Christians in the Graeco-Roman World, Winter maps out the role and obligations of the early Christians as benefactors and citizens in their society. Drawing on important ancient literary and nonliterary sources, he explores the complexities of the positive commitments made by early Christians in Gentile regions of the Roman Empire.
