Stanley E. Porter is President, Dean and Professor of New Testament, McMaster Divinity College, Canada. His latest book is Linguistic Descriptions of the Greek New Testament: New Studies in Systemic Functional Linguistics (2023). Matthew Brook O'Donnell is Research Associate in the Communication Neuroscience Lab, Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania, USA.
