Written in clear, and at times colorful, prose, Ben Witherington's What's in the Word explains how the recognition of the oral and sociorhetorical character of the New Testament and its environment necessitates a change in how the New Testament literature is read. Expanding on the work in which he has been fruitfully engaged for over a quarter century, Witherington challenges the previously assured results of historical criticism and demonstrates chapter by chapter how the sociorhetorical study shifts the paradigm.Taken together, the chapters in What's in the Word coalesce around three of Witherington's ongoing academic concerns: orality and rhetoric; New Testament history, including issues of authenticity and canonicity; and the exegesis of given words in their canonical and sociocultural contexts. Always unpredictable, this book never fails to pique interest and proffer instruction.
