BRUCE J. MALINA, JOHN J. PILCH, SOCIAL-SCIENCE COMMENTARY ON THE DEUTERO-PAULINE LETTERS, MINNEAPOLIS, MN: FORTRESS, 2013.

Summary/Abstract: Bruce Malina and John Pilch, known for their social-scientific approach of the New Testament and early Christianity propose here a third commentary in the Social-Science Commentary series, following that on the Book of Revelation (2003) and on the letters of Paul (2006). The commentary on the Deutero-Pauline epistles (Ephesians, Colossians, 2 Thessalonians, the Pastoral Epistles and Hebrews) analyses the social setting of Jesus-groups in Western Asia Minor in antiquity, also engaging contemporary anthropological studies.
