Abstract

We celebrate the ‘coming age’ of Scriptura with an issue in which the two main contributions illustrate some of the latest trends in the interpretation of Biblical material. The article of Wittenberg on the contexts of statements concerning poverty and wealth in Proverbs, illustrate the rising interest in the ‘sociological’ dimension of these texts.  The review of Roberts of four methodological approaches to the text of Philemon illustrates the remarkable interest this short letter is still generating among New Testament scholars.
