In this episode, Dr. Bruce Longenecker joins to discuss Greco-Roman associations and how studying them helps us to read the New Testament. Bruce recently published an edited volume about Greco-Roman associations with Baylor Press. He’s currently teaching both a graduate and an undergraduate seminar on the topic. The study of associations is proving, more and more, to bear fruit for those interested in Christian origins and the interpretation of the New Testament. Baylor University Press Books on Associations: Associations in the Greco-Roman World: A Sourcebook edited by Richard S.
