This concise tool for quick reference and book-by-book insight—organized in book, chapter, verse order for ease of use—is an essential addition to any personal, pastoral, or church library. Like many other Bible handbooks, Nelson's New Testament Survey includes the essential orientating data points, such as authorship for each book, date it was written, where it was written, the audience it was written to, and a general overview of that book’s content. But this New Testament survey goes one step further and includes both careful interpretation and practical application, allowing you to become more familiar with the New Testament than ever before. Features Include: Concise information for each book—from Matthew to Revelation. Careful analysis of every paragraph of the New Testament. Careful mapping of each New Testament author's purpose in writing.

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.

This nontechnical survey offers readers a working understanding of the New Testament by providing the theological tools necessary to synthesize biblical passages into themes. It incorporates historical and cultural backgrounds without becoming a book on manners and customs and deals with the actual text of Scripture without becoming a verse-by-verse commentary. Pictures, charts, and outlines aid comprehension. This classic text, which has served students well for many years, is now available in paperback.

Understanding the New Testament is a daunting but exciting task. Our world is so different from that of the first century. Yet it is important to understand the context and content of the New Testament if we are to be faithful followers. Now in paper, this survey addresses the who, what, where, when, why, and how questions that readers of the Bible may have, such as: How can we tell if what is written in the New Testament is true history or just mythology? When were these books written and why? and What can today's believers get out of letters addressed to people who lived two millennia ago? Written in an easy, informal style, this survey is accessible and enjoyable to anyone who wants to better understand the New Testament.
