Reviews
In this volume Siker, professor of NT at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, examines what the NT writings have to say about sin, with attention to the distinctive and diverse voices we find there, attending to both continuities and discontinuities across the writings, while placing them within their larger Jewish and Greco-Roman contexts. * NT WORLD *
