A selection of writings on scripture, faith and the nature of Christian scholarship, by one of America's foremost New Testament scholars and theologians.
Leander E. Keck presents a series of essays, sermons and lectures from a long career, their subjects ranging from historicity to the importance of listening and sympathy. Echoes of the Word suggests that now is the time for introspection among Christians: facing a crisis of secularisation, he calls not merely for unity, but for a period of serious and reflective thought. Grounding his arguments in a profound understanding of both the Biblical texts and their historical context, Keck offers a deep analysis of how Christianity has been influenced by new converts down the centuries who brought their own philosophies to the table, and speaks movingly of how essential it is to love one another as Christ loved us.

Leander E. Keck is Professor of Biblical Theology Emeritus at Yale Divinity School. He is author of numerous published works, including 'Who Is Jesus?', 'Paul and His Letters', 'Romans', 'The Church Confident', ' The Pauline Letters', and 'A Future for the Historical Jesus'. He is also the general editor and senior New Testament editor of 'The New Interpreter's Bible'.
