Summary: | This book originated as volume 69 in the series The Biblical Seminar published by Sheffield Academic Press in 2000. The whole, including the original series title, the original publisher, and the then ISBN, has now been repackaged as a paperback with a new cover and different ISBN in a new series, Understanding the New Testament and its World. Alan Millard's book certainly merits reissuing and is an appropriate title to appear in such a series for it seeks to introduce and explain just how literate a society it was in the Roman world of Jesus’ day, what languages would have been understood and written in the Eastern Mediterranean, and the forms in which writings were transmitted. |
