This Handbook is the first comprehensive reference work focused on New Testament rhetoric. The 1980s through the early 2000s witnessed an explosion of rhetorical-critical scholarship on the New Testament. The Oxford Handbook of New Testament Rhetoric introduces leading types of rhetorical approaches to the New Testament in Part One and provides essays that apply rhetorical scholarship to every New Testament document in PartTwo.Moving beyond bibliographic essays, leading scholars in the field provide creative contributions to each topic while engaging with previous research, thus providing an expert's guidance to the predominant scholarship.At its best, New Testament rhetorical criticism has been theoretically self-aware. Importantly, the volume includes an introduction in Part One of the theories, methods, and perennial topics that have driven New Testament rhetorical scholarship. With a comprehensive table of contents, the volume addresses topics in Part One such as Classical Rhetorical Criticism, Sociorhetorical Criticism, Rhetorical Narratology, Visual Rhetoric, Feminist Rhetoric, Postcolonial Rhetorical Criticism, andRhetorical Theology. These essays provide the rhetorical groundwork for the application of theories and methods analyzed in Part Two. Altogether, thirty original chapters by preeminent international scholarsmake The Oxford Handbook of New Testament Rhetoric ideal for biblical scholars and students alongside its value as a authoritative scholarly resource.
