Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Every interpreter of the Bible, whether a professional or a serious student, will benefit from Brown's work."

Jeannine Brown introduces embedded genres in the New Testament and explores how these genres within genres contribute to the messages of the New Testament authors.

"Brown's book, although learned, is accessible and engaging. It is an invitation to the art of noticing, a call to sit and ruminate that will move readers of the New Testament to realize that, all too often, they have been seeing without seeing."
--Dale C. Allison Jr., Princeton Theological Seminary

"A fresh look at how the microgenres within biblical books relate to their macrogenre and why that matters for more-faithful interpretation. Every interpreter of the Bible, whether a professional or a serious student, will benefit from Brown's work."
--Karen H. Jobes, Wheaton College (emerita)

"Brown's nuanced study models fine-grained historical and literary attention to the dynamics of embedded genres and gives her readers the tools to do the same. A boon to all serious teachers and students of the New Testament."
--Susan Eastman, Duke Divinity School (emerita)

"Brown illuminates 'embedded genres,' micro-literary pieces within a larger text. She offers a convincing case that readers benefit greatly from keen awareness of where these embedded units occur, how they deserve special attention, and how they affect the whole. She fills a gap left by textbooks that often miss this important topic."
--Nijay K. Gupta, Northern Seminary

"Centering our attention on embedded literary forms in the Bible, on how they shape and are shaped by the books in which they appear, Brown cultivates good habits by urging us to slow down and listen up. Her work with texts from Philippians, Matthew, and 1 Peter is stimulating on its own terms, and even more so as she addresses larger interpretive possibilities and invites us to do the same."
--Joel B. Green, Fuller Theological Seminary
