Reviews

'This valuable work forces New Testament scholars to give more attention to the neglected ritual world of the New Testament.' -- V. Henry T. Nguyen, Loyola Marymount University, USA 'This is a brief and much-needed introduction to a neglected aspect of early Christianity and its environment ...The challenge to protestant and rationalist assumptions in reading the New Testament is clear, and the contribution of this book to opening the way to further insights into early Christianity will undoubtedly prove significant.' -- Journal for the Study of the New Testament 'Both accessible and invigorating, DeMaris' book will no doubt be hailed as a tour de force in the social-scientific understanding of early Christian ritual and practice.' -- Theology
