"The list of 153 publications by Cilliers Breytenbach at the end of this book is testimony both to his breadth of learning and the depth of his engagement with soteriological questions and, as such, this collection of 32 essays, half of which are in German, is a fitting tribute to him. (...) An index of ancient sources provides an invaluable way in for anyone looking to engage with a specific text" - Timothy Carter, in: Journal for the Study of the New Testament 42:5, 2020
