This volume considers the New Testament in the light of anthropological study, in particular the current trend towards theological anthropology. The book begins with three essays that survey the context in which the New Testament was written, covering the Old Testament, early Jewish writings and the literature of the Greco -Roman world. Chapters then explore the anthropological ideas found in the texts of the New Testament and in the thought of it writers, notably that of Paul. The volume concludes with pieces from Brian S. Roser and Ephraim Radner who bring the whole exploration together by reflecting on the theological implications of the New Testament's anthropological ideas. Taken together, the chapters in this volume address the question that humans have been asking since at least the earliest days of recorded history: what does it mean to be human? The presence of this question in modern theology, and its current prevalence in popular culture, makes this volume both a timely and relevant interdisciplinary addition to the scholarly conversation around the New Testament.

Aktuelle Entwicklungen stellen Amtstheologie und Sexuallehre der Kirche massiv in Frage. Das Neue Testament bietet hier keine einfachen Lösungen. Die Beiträge fragen nach Konstruktionen und Stereotypen von Geschlechterrollen, nach dem Verhältnis von Sexualität und Gender und ihrer Einbindung in Machtstrukturen, nach Aussagen zur Homosexualität, nach zeitbedingten kulturellen Normen für Sexualität und Ehe sowie „Fehlverhalten" oder Brechungen bei den ersten Christinnen und Christen. Abschließend wird die Relevanz der Bibel für gegenwärtige ethische Debatten um Sexualität und Geschlecht kritisch reflektiert.

"What does it mean to be 'like a child' in antiquity? How did early Christ-followers use a childlike condition to articulate concrete qualifications for God's kingdom? Many people today romanticize Jesus's welcoming of little children against the backdrop of the ancient world or project modern Christian conceptions of children onto biblical texts. Eschewing such a Christian exceptionalist approach to history, this book explores how the Gospel of Matthew, 1 Corinthians, and the Gospel of Thomas each associate childlikeness with God's kingdom within their socio-cultural milieus. The book investigates these three texts vis-à-vis philosophical, historical, and archaeological materials concerning ancient children and childhood, revealing that early Christ-followers deployed various aspects of children to envision ideal human qualities or bodily forms. Calling the modern reader's attention to children's intellectual incapability, asexuality, and socio-political utility in ancient intellectual thought and everyday practices, the book sheds new light on the rich and diverse theological visions that early Christ-followers pursued by means of images of children."
