For scholars interested in early Christian studies

Clarifies complex methods of biblical exegesis

You will gain a deeper understanding of Christian culture

This insightful book explores how early Christians shaped their culture through biblical interpretation.

In this study of the influence of the late ancient educational system on patristic biblical exegesis, simplistic reductions to discrete methods (moral, typological, allegorical) and schools (Alexandrian, Antiochene) give way to a more nuanced appreciation. Professor Young's lucid study shows how early Christians used the interpretive tools of Greco-Roman culture to build an alternative Christian culture on the basis of the biblical text.
