Synopsis:

A bold reexamination of a landmark study in biblical ethics

Thirty years ago, Richard Hays's The Moral Vision of the New Testament transformed how scholars, pastors, and students approached biblical ethics. Now a distinguished group of biblical scholars returns to this foundational work with new questions and contemporary urgency.

This volume brings together senior and emerging New Testament scholars for a robust scholarly conversation with real-world implications. The contributors grapple seriously with Hays's enduring influence while charting new territories in biblical ethics--always with an eye toward how Scripture speaks to the moral challenges that Christians face today.

New Testament Ethics doesn't merely commemorate a classic work; it propels the conversation forward, demonstrating that the relationship between ancient Scriptures and contemporary conscience remains as vital as ever. This is biblical ethics for a new generation, rooted in serious scholarship and committed to engaging with the most pressing moral questions of our time.
