The book gives a helpful overview of scholarship that has attempted to identify the nature and source of the Colossian error. The book, unlike many others on the topic, is exegetically driven, and will model thorough and careful exegetical practice. The book interacts with extra-Biblical texts which help the reader to understand the mystical contexts of first century Judaism. 410 0$aLibrary of New Testament studies ;$v326. 606 $aMysticism$xJudaism$xHistory 615 0$aMysticism$xJudaism$xHistory. 676 $a227.706 676 $a227/.706 700 $aSmith$b Ian K$01514585 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789663103321 996 $aHeavenly perspective$93749836 997 $aUNINA
