This survey has been a standard text for over forty years. Merrill C. Tenney's comprehensive reference opens with an analysis of the social, political, economic, and religious background of the New Testament, and with an analysis of the New Testament message. Then each book is examined in its historical setting. The revision by Walter Dunnett includes new material on the Jewish background of the New Testament, on the Gospels, and on the canon. With enlarged bibliographies, many new illustrations, maps, and charts.
