دانلود کتاب Papyri and the Social World of the New Testament

In this book Sabine R. Huebner explores the world of the New
Testament protagonists and the early Christians using the rich papyrological
evidence from Roman Egypt, a resource which gives us
unparalleled insights into the everyday lives of a nonelite population.
What were the daily concerns and difficulties experienced by
a carpenter’s family or by a shepherd looking after his flocks? How
did the average man or woman experience a Roman census? What
obstacles did women living in a patriarchal society face in private, in
public, and in the early church? Given the flight of Jesus’ family into
Egypt, how mobile were the lower classes, what was their understanding
of geography, and what costs and dangers were associated
with travel? This volume gives us a better understanding of the
structural, social, and cultural conditions in which figures from the
New Testament lived.
