This is the first of three volumes collectively titled Early Christianity in its Hellenistic Context. The three volumes will appear in two different series: v.1 and v.2 in TENTS (Texts and Editions for New Testament Study); and v.3, because of its focus on language, in LBS (Linguistic Biblical Studies). Editors Porter and Pitts are both affiliated with McMaster Divinity College, Canada. Twenty-five contributions are arranged in sections on Greco-Roman social contexts for Christian origins, and Greco-Roman literary contexts for Christian origins. Authors were invited to fully develop their topics, and many of the articles are 30 pages are more.
