Evidence that has been largely overlooked in NT scholarship appears in Ephesiaca by Xenophon of Ephesus and suggests that the topic be revisited. Recently dated to the mid-first century C.E., Ephesiaca brings to life what is known from ancient sources about the social setting and cultural rules of the wealthy in Ephesus and provides details that enhance our knowledge of life and society in that place and time.In this volume, Hoag introduces Ephesiaca and employs a socio-rhetorical methodology to explore it alongside other ancient evidence and five passages in 1 Timothy (2:9–15; 3:1–13; 6:1–2a; 6:2b–10; and 6:17–19). His findings augment our modern conception of the Sitz im Leben of the wealthy in Ephesus. Additionally, because Ephesiaca contains some rare terms and themes that are found in 1 Timothy, this groundbreaking research offers fresh insight for biblical reading and interpretation.Bulletin for biblical research supplements ;11.WealthBiblical teachingfast(OCoLC)fst01172974WealthBiblical teachingTurkeyEphesus (Extinct city)fastEphesus (Extinct city)Church historyChurch historyWealthBiblical teaching.WealthBiblical teaching.227/.8306Hoag Gary G1788647MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910974302503321Wealth in Ancient Ephesus and the First Letter to Timothy4323779UNINA
