This new revised edition, of the landmark 1988 text, includes updated text and notes throughout, taking advantage of recent studies of sexual ethics and, where appropriate, criticizing them. A new chapter engages the presumed "ethic of creation"; that has become a major theme among more conservative thinkers and writers in biblical ethics. A concluding chapter on sex is thoroughly rewritten and offers a positive statement of a New Testament sexual ethic.
L William Countryman is Sherman E Johnson Professor of New Testament at the Church Divinity School of the Pacific, California and the author of several books in New Testament interpretation for the contemporary church.
