Description
Summary:One of the marked changes in theological education is the increasing determination of New Testament departments to look upon the New Testament as a record of actual historical experience. Such a view, though easily stated, has been revolutionary in more ways than one. It has transferred the emphasis from linguistic to historical study. Even critical processes, because they are taken as a matter of fact, are now being thrust into their true perspective. One might almost say that the New Testament departments had discovered that it is their business to teach Christianity as it was lived in New Testament times. The result of this change has brought into the foreground of study materials which were formerly overlooked. The present article by Professor Robinson is a good summary of certain of these changes of emphasis.
