'A first-rate contribution to our understanding of the New Testament by one of its outstanding teachers and scholars of the second half of our century ... Although this is a long book, Caird's writing is succinct ... but larded with references ... there is so much detail here and manysurprising interpretations that no reader will be comfortable with all Caird's judgements, but it is a work of such richness that everyone will gain something from it and most students will be challenged to reconsider long-held opinions. All readers, and especially Caird's former students, owe aspecial debt of gratitude to Professor Hurst for bringing us a controversial but always rewarding reading of the New Testament that could still have been lying somewhere in the vaults.'The Heythrop Journal, 'It is something of a miracle, and much to the credit of his former research student, Professor L. D. Hurst, who was appointed Caird's literary executor, that a coherent book of nearly 500 pages has now emerged.'C.F.D. Moule, Journal of Theological Studies, Vol. 46, No. 1, April 1995, 'The work clearly represents a mature mind, one that had grappled with hard questions of biblical backgrounds, language and imagery and hermeneutics, and was constantly engaged in the task of exegesis. Caird and Hurst have prepard well the ground for others. Either way, they have made animportant contribution to the task of understanding the New Testament. They are to be commended for daring to employ new methods and for seeking more than anything else to allow the NT authors to be heard on their own terms.'Philip Towner, Regent College, Vancouver, Scottish Journal of Theology, 'Using Caird's unpublished and previously published materials, Hurst has skillfully completed the deceased author's half-finished manuscript, which presents the reader with a vastly erudite, deeply personal, intriguing, and generally credible interpretation of NT theology. All NT students canprofit from its insights.'Casimir Bernas, Holy Trinity Abbey, Huntsville, UT 84317, Religious Studies Review, Volume 321, Number 2/ April 1995, 'While the reader will inevitably feel some sense of disappointment that Caird did not finish the work personally, Hurst has done an admirable job.'H. Alan Brehm, Southwestern Journal of Theology, 'The necessary and up-to-date documentation of the book has also been provided by the editor and to him the scholarly community owes a huge debt of gratitude for his energetic devotion to a difficult, but immensely valuable, task. ... The style is vigorous, vivid and compelling: quotablesentences abound. ... Honesty, integrity, and respect for the worth of the New Testament documents are everywhere evident. Our hearty thanks go the editor for making it available. I commend it to students and scholars, but especially to preachers: here is theology that burns with passion and willrevive any preacher's confidence in his task and in his message.'Expository Times, 'There can be few major works of biblical scholarship that are as beautifully organized or succinctly expressed as this, a magnificent compendium of the thological message(s) of the New Testament ... a definitive, even encyclopaedic, statement that will repay much careful study. Brilliantlyconceived, rigorously logical yet elegantly written, and expertly accomplished, this NT Theology is a magisterial achievement. Every theological library should have a copy.'J.E. Bardwell, St Stephen's House, Oxford, Theological Book Review, Vol. 7, No. 3, June 1995, vivid and compelling ... Our hearty thanks go to the editor for making it available. I commend it to students and scholars., "An outstanding contribution to the field of NT theology that builds upon the insights of Caird's contemporaries in the field, while adding his own unique insights on the central themes usually associated with this field of study....The book is extremely well done and recommended for anyone interested in scholarly study of NT theology. It is especially recommended for college and seminary libraries, but it is written in such a way as to be accessible to the general reader as well."--Choice, ''...is a welcome addition to studies in biblical theology...This volume draws together the major strands of his thourhgt into one comprehensive work...He clearly demonstrates that while the New Testament texts were not written to be sung in unison, they can surely be sung in harmony (24).This is a book to be read and savored.''David Rhoads, Lutheran School of Theology, Chicago, Pro Ecclesia Vol.VI, No.4, 'Hurst has matched Caird's style almost perfectly. Moreover, there are no evident disjunctions of thought; Hurst has presented the thinking of his teacher with a facility that would make any professor envious...there is much to commend here...This volume is characterized by the kind ofcomprehensive knowledge, balanced judgment, and critical reverence that one associated with G. B. Caird. It is eminently useful as a guide along the ways in which the various NT writers deal with key theological issues...C. Has provided a most insightful study that is an absolute 'must' for anyonedoing serious work in NT theology.'The Catholic Biblical Quarterly, 'A welcome addition to studies in biblical theology ... This volume draws together the major strands of his thought into one comprehensive work ... He clearly demonstrates that while the New Testament texts were not written to be sung in unison, they can surely be sung in harmony (24). This isa book to be read and savored.'Pro Ecclesia

Synopsis
Generations of students have known G.B. Caird as a penetrating and lucid guide to the many questions and problems posed by modern biblical study. His brillant commentaries on St Luke, the Book of Revelation, and St Paul's Prison Epistles, as well as his other studies on theology and the Bible, have won for him a place among the twentieth century's foremost biblical scholars. This new and masterly presentation of New Testament theology, completed and edited since the author's death by Professor L.D. Hurst, takes the unique step of setting up an imaginary debate amongst the various authors of the New Testament themselves. As central concepts (predestination, sin, atonement, the church, sacrament, ethics, eschatology, and christology) are 'discussed' between such figures as Luke, Paul, John, and the author of Hebrews, the work moves to its climax with a presentation of the theology of Jesus himself. The result provides a particularly fresh and illuminating picture of the ideas at the heart of Christianity, deserving a place on the shelf of every serious pastor, theologian, and student of the Bible., Generations of students have known G.B.
