Front Cover
Tate Publishing, 2007 - 133 pages
After teaching New Testament for many years, he has looked for a simple, yet complete study of the background of the New Testament. Finding none that he could use with high school students and laymen alike, he developed this book to help his students understand that the New Testament did not take place in a vacuum. "A Student's New Testament Survey" shows that the people, places, times, and activities-though very different from what we are accustomed to today-were real and hold a vital component in our understanding of what the New Testament teaches.
