In this masterful volume—the culmination of his three-volume History of New Testament Research; (vol. 1, From Deism to Tubingen, 1992; vol. 2, From Jonathan Edwards to Rudolf Bultmann, 2012)—William Baird continues his insightful, balanced, and accessible survey of the major developments in New Testament scholarship. Volume 3 charts the dramatic discoveries and breakthroughs in method and approach that characterized the mid– and late twentieth century. Baird gives attention to the biographical and cultural setting of persons and approaches, affording both beginning student and seasoned scholar an authoritative account of the evolution of historical-critical study of the New Testament.

The rise of cities in America and subsequent suburban living have created many problems for the church - prime among which are the problem of man in society and the problem of man before God. Can the Bible, a book with an antique setting in another age and culture, help with these problems. Yes says Dr. Baird, because the civilization of the New Testament times was also urban. And this urban character is nowhere better exemplified in the days of the early church than at Corinth. In this essay Dr. Baird presents an exegesis of First Corinthians in an attempt to equate the fundamental moral and ethical issues which Paul faced with those that confront the church today.
