Peter Frick of Conrad Grebel University College at the University of Waterloo has reviewed Reading James With New Eyes, a volume I have previously discussed, in the Review of Biblical Literature. The review is available here.
Frick provides a summary of the essays while noting his reservations with new methodological approaches, namely that the methods lead the authors to different places with regard to James’ central focus. After 2 lengthy paragraphs criticizing the essays, he concludes with a two sentence conclusion espousing the timeliness of the work.
On a personal note, after taking midterms and grading midterms, spring break, and a minor family emergency, I am back in the blogging saddle.
Yes, I clicked on the link several times and it just kept cycling back to this page. I’m curiouls just how new the ‘eyes’ are that re-examined James. For instance does this article attribute the date of authorship to the Earthly ministry of Jesus. Does it concider James to be the pre-crucifiction epistle that it is?
Nice, thanks! Maybe you can do a follow up post about it?
