Before coming to grips with an individual verse or passage in the New Testament, Bible students and expositors need to understand how it relates to the theme of the book. Robert Gromacki's New Testament survey provides a solid foundation for in-depth exegesis of each book in the New Testament. This text represents a true survey. It provides an introduction to the New Testament free of technical discussion. The first chapter explores the first-century historical background, social and economic conditions, Gentile religions and philosophies, and Judaistic practices. In the next two chapters the author discusses the entire New Testament in general and the Gospels in particular.The remaining twenty-seven chapters cover each of the New Testament books. After presenting introductory data for each book - authorship, date, purpose, and the like - Gromacki provides a detailed outline and summary commentary. Each chapter concludes with an "Increase Your Learning" section, which presents both individual projects and topics for further discussion. A list of recommended commentaries follows. --from inside jacket.
